| Today is Robin Shaeffer's Day. She doesn't have a blog at this time, so I am hosting her. She writes" I was a pattern tester for this bag by Chriswdesigns.com It is called the Genevieve Messenger Bag. I made a plain version for the testing and really liked the pattern. I decided to try the fancier version with a linen panel in the middle with some hand embroidery." |
 |
| Here is what the whole bag looks like. |

| "My second project was an appliqued wall hanging using a part of the Bella Garden pattern by Mckenna Ryan. I just love how the viney background sets off the birdies!" "It stands out so well on my tan wall." |

| "The last project was made out of some gorgeous fabric that I came across at Joann's. I loved all the birds and bird cages on the texiy background. I made it into a kind of artist portfolio to take my hand embroidery with me without having to bold the block. I always have a hard time getting the creasse marks out after stitching, so I wanted something big enough to keep the block flat. I made up the pattern as I went. I made sure to put tons of pockets on both inner sides. I also put a ribbon across the top of one side to hook things on. Then I sewed two pieces of batting down the middle so I have a couple of pages to hold my works in progress!" |
