Quilted Hexagon Bag

Hello everyone!

 I have been crazy lately playing with hexagons...in fact I've already prepare a long list of projects that I would like to create using hexagons.  

 Today I am sharing another quilted bag created using hexagons. Since I am not too satisfied with the result (especially the crooked seam)I am not giving this bag away...( initially I plan to sew this as a  gift for my mum).  I will sew another one for my mum with some modification towards the original pattern. 

 I used 28 pieces of 2" hexagons. The design of this bag was inspired from this leather hand bag.

It comes with two internal pockets - one for the cell phone and another with the size of 5" x 6" to keep small items. I used velcro as the bag closure. The is how the inside of the bag looks like.

 
I am sharing this at Sew Lux Fabric & Gifts for December Stitch and Share Challenge.  Click over to their blog and see other projects shared by other talented crafters/sewers. You may also join the fun since the date line will be until 31st of December.

 Wish everyone Happy New Year and Happy Sewing!!

Slouchy Hat

Hi everyone!!

Just a quick post today.... 

I finished crocheting this slouchy hat for a friend... this hat is using my Sweet Slouchy hat pattern. 

The colors were of her choice - combination of Black and Red. 

She wants it to comes with a flower from the same red with leaves.... and I add with a layer of pink to make the flower outstanding ...

 and I love the result...hope she likes it too!!

Happy Crocheting and Happy Holidays!!

Fabric basket

Hi everyone!

 

I just finished sewing this fabric basket.... a gift for my husband.  The height of this basket is 5.5cm.   I used the following pattern which I took from the Japanese sewing book ...by just following the diagram since I can't read Japanese.

 

It gives me an idea to sew one for my hubby since he loves to put his coins on the mug rug that I've made  him. 

And here goes the coins into its new home...

The fabric basket with full of coins at the corner of the computer table.

I am sharing this at the Sew and Share Challenge and Stash project of the Month.

Wishing everyone Happy Holidays 

and  Happy New Year!!
