Fail. Fail. Success!

So it might seem that my lack of posts means I haven’t been sewing away these last couple of weeks, but that’s definitely not the case.  I’ve had several projects going the last while, but until today they were all a flop.

I tried to make a slouchy purse for a friend.  Fail.

It’s way too straight so it didn’t slouch…

I tried to to make this book bag.  Fail.

Outside. Just fine. Inside. You don’t want to see it…

I decided to take a break from the sewing machine and knit a rectangle for a felted throw that my mom and I are working on.  So I finished that, and now I’m back in the sewing game!

I found this adorable little pinafore pattern on smashed peas and carrots blog and thought it would be perfect for one of Evy’s embroidery designs fromA Bit of Stitch .  It turned out so cute!  I’m relatively new to the embroidery world and don’t really know what I’m doing, but it’s so much fun!

Big day tomorrow… I’ll be starting on my second attempt of the slouchy bag.  Fingers crossed that this one turns out better!
