Dedicated to the Vogit family

Heeee--yyyyy!

I'm starting up sew it again, after a year and some of dreaming-planning-scheming time in Nicaragua. My fingers have been itching to sew, so here's a little show and tell of the fun-ness of having a sewing machine again! This blog owes all of it's thanks to one Ryan Voogt. Thanks for bugging me to keep the sew it magic alive.




I saw a bag I liked on the internets and decided to see if I could make something similar...



I went through a lot of newspapers in a pattern-making frenzy! Yay!
I used some old wool fabric my mom had been hoarding in the basement for years, and found some zippers at vinnie's (the best second hand store EVER) for $.10 each. Rocks my freaking face off.



Here's a final pic--a little floppy, but still fun. Kevin's sister is now the new proud owner! I have another cut out of the same fabric, so one of these days I'll get around to making it. I was mostly excited about all the zipper-ness!
