Just thinking about packing up my sewing machine this week gave me the heebee jeebees. I've made the mistake of packing up too soon before. So I thought, I should get one or two of my small projects on my to-do list done.
The first project was simply to add a zipper to a large wide-open bag. It was started a few weeks ago and was waiting until I found the right color purse zipper. So that was a quick finish. This is a gift for my friend Brenda and I'll give it to her when I get home later next week.
Next, are a batch of pencil cases. To make the fronts of the pouches, I used up batik scraps, added some simple stitching to a plain light fabric, and then added my label. When the fronts were done, I put them together using my standard simple pencil case pattern. All they need now are cute little beaded zipper pulls.

It was fun to sew the continuous random lines on the long
plain strip. |

Aren't you the smarty-farty sewing that cute meander on the long continuous strip! I don't think I would have thought of that - but then, when have I ever produced a bunch of something?! Nice use of the production line.
I love those little bags.. adorable!!!
So clever, Gail! They look like they'd be fun to make.
