We are pulling out of the dulldrums of winter around here. Well, at least this week anyway. All the sunshine and "
warmer" weather (temps in the 40's) sure puts a spring in my step and a fire under my feet! I LOVE Spring - actually I love the change of seasons we get here but I love the fact that in Spring everything is new, fresh and bright! I'm actually getting the "itch" to sew and create some new things. SO - if you are feeling the "itch" too here's a few contests, tutorials, etc you might want to try or at least take a peek at (wink)
Lola...again blog has a GREAT tutorial for a snazzy handbag - the
Jenny Bag. You can download the pattern and see her step by step photos and instructions. Love the bold choice of fabric she used and who can't use another handbag.
So freshen up your Spring wardrobe with your own version of the Jenny Bag!Calling all DIY crafters!!!!
