Update: MMDD

The stitching pattern that I'm using. Basic straight stitch.

Stitching in the fabric

Stitched and ironed both side pieces for the bag

Left this side unbasted due to the fact that I don't have a 22" zipper that the bag calls for.

Pinned both sides of bag together along the bottom and will do a basic stitch then a serger stitch to finish off the edges

Right sides of the duffel bag

Time to sew!!!

Mickey Mouse Diaper Duffle

Beginning of the bag with matching bands in place

I have to iron them down stitch on the left side and baste stitch on the right

Step 2 for Bag B of Pattern E2399

Directions for step 2 then it moves on to show me how to add and adjust the zipper portion

My mini iron. It's my iron of choice because its small and doesn't take up much space.
It's raining here in Louisiana. There are severe thunderstorm warnings across the state, so what better way to wash away a rainy day than to get crafty in doors. I found some new patterns on www.hancockfabrics.com and I can't wait to cut a rug with them!

New Fabrics

Flowers, puppies, polka dots, and stripes. Most of this I will use for baby shoes I have quite a few patterns I've been itching to try. Aside from all that I want to make some Yo-Yo accessories as well, maybe even a few business card holders. What do you think?
