I'm a great grandmother and was thinking making seasonal diaper bags for my grand and great-grand daughters, might be fun and get me out of my funk. I made this one when DGS was on the way http://amingledyarn.wordpress.com/ga...ma-diaper-bag/ I have asked DD if there was anything about it she didn't like. Lizzy DD considers that a firmer bottom would be an improvement and also a second set of snaps to give a tighter closure when the bag is not so full. Oh yes! Forgot to add that in my post. I used the plastic covers from a foolscap folder to stiffen my bottom (well, actually, the bag's bottom...) and added six metal plated bag feet by punching holes in the plastic with a centre-punch. I also added two magnetic bag closures above the zipper for exactly that reason: to give a tighter closure when the bag is not so full. It was so much fun making the nappy bag, I went on to use up some of my precious Laurel Burch cat-flavoured fabric and made a handbag for my teenaged daughter: she was overjoyed and now takes it everywhere. Next, I'm going to make another handbag for an elderly nun who taught me in school. She has a thing for Siamese cats and I've got *just* the fabric in my stash! Can't wait to give it to her! -- Trish Brown {|:-} Newcastle, NSW, Australia |

Yeppers, I read here, and post once in a while. Don't do Facebook or any of those things. Finally learned how to text on my phone last year when my dad was sliding downhill.
This group is my first quilt guild. I've met amazing people here, some even face-to-face!

The magnetic snaps are ridiculously expensive here (about £3)so I have
started to buy old handbags from charity jumble sales (which are cheaper than charity shops) I can often get a bag for about 20p if it is well-worn. The snaps are very easy to remove with a pair of old scissors and usually look like new. I have a nice little collection now and sometimes bags come with the added bonus of a buckle and strap links. Now I just need to make some bags! Sally at the Seaside ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~uk http://picasaweb.google.com/SallySeaside On 02/08/2013 04:29, Trish Brown wrote: ........

I am doing both FB and check in here. We moved and getting up and running
took some work. I feel worked to the bone and having a bit of trouble finding some routine. Nice to see folks here. FB is ok but I feel like I am home here. Hope folks will post more here.

Yes, that is what I am hoping, too, Taria.
Really, we only have to start a thread or two every now and again, and we'll be off and running So, I will try to set down a group challenge I devised this year! It has proven to be rather more challenging for folk than I had anticipated .... I may have to do a workshop to cover all the difficujlties found! So, I'll hope to be back on Sunday-ish with my long-ish post! I'm on a new system, and, so far, have only been able to respond to existing posts. But, I am slowly getting a smidgen more confident, so I might try pressing any likely looking icons, to get that problem fixed g Here's hoping ... .. In article , says...

I am sorry to say that I don't check in as often as I would like. I do read this group more than the FB one. Only when a big request for a HUG or other does the FB catch my eye.
My favorite quilt in a movie or show is the one Jean (Judy Dench) had on her bed in "As Time Goes By". An old British show that is in re-runs here on PBS. It's all in plaids and HST's. I've been collecting those fabrics forever so I can make one just like it. |
