Working on. . . .

This last week I have been working on pattern testing for new patterns I will be releasing this month – so exciting!  So, mostly I have been sewing my new designs which I will show on the blog later this month.  I have a new bag pattern and a basket pattern.  Stay tuned for more on that!

I have made some progress on the diaper bag for my cousin.  As you can see,  I have the exterior done.  It has been awhile since I have sewn something without a plan to turn it into a pattern, ha!  This one is for fun and I am designing it as I go.   There’s a zipped pocket on the back side, elasticized pockets on the sides and a big pocket on the front as you can see in the pic.  There are even more pockets on the inside so it’s a good thing I have until the end of May before her baby is due!

Another project I have been working on is designing cut-out designs with my silhouette cameo.  Here is one design I made.  I think this will fit nicely onto a tote bag.   Or maybe  a pillow? What do you think? 

I cut the light violet fabric out with the cutter using my design, then all the little pieces left on the cutting mat made the second design.  Yes, I had to move them over there one by one!

Hope you are a sewing a fun project or playing with fabric this week. Thanks for stopping by!
