Well, something had to be done .....
(And yes, I had to make a tuck in the lining - it must have grown while I was fiddling with the zipper :))
And this can go on my Early Bird Christmas list, too - as the challenge was something for outdoors. But I like it so much I don't really want to part with it - so either it will be a pre-Christmas pressie for me (is that allowed?) or I'll have to make another one, won't I!
That's what happens when you're a bag lady!
Mandarin classes start again today - new teacher and new group. We were only 3 from our old group that wanted to carry on. So we are taking the same class as we had in the spring - I don't mind, it will give me a chance to review before going further. Which is a good thing -I looked at the books today and realised how quickly I can forget when not working at it every day!
And then I hope enough students from this group will go on to the next level after Christmas.
I hope you have a good evening, too.
Well I wouldn't have noticed the tuck unless you had mentioned it!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you are learning Mandarin, I imagine it is so difficult but then I am English and everyone knows we are rubbish at trying to learn other languages!
Cool bag!Of course you can treat yourself with a present!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's a cute bag and useful too. I have lot of upholstery fabric I must try to make one too. It looks easy enough (I think). How big is it? ]

ReplyDelete妳好嗎? I love how you recycled old parts to create this new bag! And I'm quite impressed that you're learning Mandarin, too! Are you learning the complex or simplified written characters?
ReplyDeletePerfekt bag! Og lykke til med starten igjen på Mandarin kurset,spennende!!
ReplyDeleteLove the bag! I plan to make some out of drapery samples, but they just never seem to get done. Christmas will be here before I know it! Hope you have a lovely day.
