They're multiplying...

After making this pencil case I made a whole lot more - I've been experimenting with using different patches and more than one patch to decorate them...

 

These ones are all lined with polka dotty cotton - I'm eyeing up some gingham in my fabric stash for lining the next ones I make.

Might have to bust out the rotary cutter tonight and cut out a few more!

My creative space: canvas and polka dots

Morning!  At the op shop a while back I found a giant treasure trove of zips and bought a whole lot of them.  I've been making lots of small zippered pouches, but none of the zips were small pouch size, so I decided to have a go at making a bigger, pencil case-sized pouch.  It brought back memories of the last time I made a pencil case...a hideous orange padded nylon one in sewing class at Intermediate school.  This one's made of canvas and I sewed one of my swallow patches onto it.    

I've got at least 10 more red zips so I might have to get a production line happening!

Next up this morning I'm going to Albany to get an image I've designed transferred onto a silk screen, exciting!

Joining in with "my creative space" over here today.

Happy Thursday!
