I had several ideas of projects for these fabrics, but I ended up with this bag. I was able to use all the 10 different fabrics for it!
Here is the other side of the same bag.
And here is the bottom!
It will be a birthday gift for a two-year-old I used to babysit. The bag is filled with lots of goodies and is going to fly across the ocean soon! Not sure if he remembers me (probably not!), but he'll definitely enjoy seeing the sea animals on his bag! And it makes 'me' feel good to be able to make something to show him how much he is cared for by us.
Now, time for a giveaway :D Laurie has allowed me to give away her Don't Be Crabby fat quarter bundle to one of you! For your chance to win the bundle, please leave one comment on this post by October 29, Monday! Good luck ;)
Have a great rest of the week!
