I have a gazillion things I should be doing, we all know how it goes though. The slightest temptation is enough to draw me away from things that need doing to things that shouldn't really be done.
I spied Katy's gorgeous little 9 patch pouch over on the Sizzix blog on Monday, the rest is obvious....
A big pouch for the man's birthday next week, using up an orphan block made from every last teeny tiny scrap of Oakshott Lipari that the lovely Karen sent me in my secret santa. Its a biggun at about 13" for y'know, man stuff!
I also had to make up a little cutesy 9 patch for me, just because I deserve it so much ;-) I used some of my precious scraps, some silver ricrac and the very last of my yellow Annie's Seed Catalogue print for the tabs.
And the pretty pouches just keep coming, I won this lovely from Sarah at Silly Banana Sewing
The pouch is beautifully made, the zip ends are so neat as well as the piecing and it is lovely and solid. I'm going to be using to take my epp out and about everywhere with me in the hopes I will finally get the rose star quilt top pieced! And the Summersville was a lovely bonus as I have neither of these prints in my stash, thank you so much Sarah! (And i hope the sickness leaves your house soon! x)

Fun bags!
Man bags...13"? What does your man keep in his bag I'm left wondering? ;-) The bags are gorgeous and I especially love the man bag which I would happily wear!
No way I can't believe you made it into a bag, he would have so loved a mini quilt!! Great job lady.
Bags galore! They are lovely. Di x
You make me smile. Man stuff :)
