My Charm Pack Bag is finished

Well if you read my post this morning I was saying how I have been looking for a Charm Pack bag pattern. I couldnt find one that used ONE charm pack. So I set to designing one myself. This charming (excuse the pun!)bag  is made from just one charm pack. I am so delighted with the finished product. I started on this yesterday and finished it this afternoon.
This fabric is from the Charm Pack by Moda that Pam sent me for the Mother's Day Swap I was in. I am now going to make up more of this bags as they are very addictive!!
I had some square left over that I was going to use for the inside pocket.. I could have done this,  but I used the lining fabric instead. I am going to make a matching zip purse to go with the bag..Ill show you that later.
I may bring the pattern out for this bag.. but there is alot involved in thinking of what to write !! I have done some quirky things that Im not going to find easy to explain...


The other side

Also this morning a mention about my love of Leicen fabrics...
Well the above photo is of some of my stash... most of these are my new fabrics.. I just LOVE them!!


Here is the books that I also love written by some very talented Japanese designers. These books are all in Japanese and I dont understand any of it but the diagrams are good...so I could work it out.

And my new arrival... Yiphee!!!
Tilda!! yes I ordered some Tilda fabric from England and I received it today...also some ribbons by Tilda too... The colours are the muted pinks, duck blue and of course the gorgeous red...

so thats me for the moment...

Catch ya later
