TWO MORE BAGS

 I made two more bags for Sew Powerful.  These were both made from a discarded pair of jeans and used some fun fabrics on the inside lining.

DENIM BAG FINISHED

 I got the black web strapping for the denim bag I started last Friday and was able to finish it.

The denim was much more difficult to finish because of the density of the fabrics when everything come together.  I even broke a needle.  But I got it done.  I was thinking I'd make more from old denim, but now I'm reconsidering that!

I had made a simple little flower to sew onto the front flap.  

This will also be donated to Sew Powerful.



Did you know you can also donate fabric to Sew Powerful?

A SECOND BAG

 It was so satisfying to make the bag for Sew Powerful yesterday, I made another today.  I used the same type of fabrics, this time in different colorways.  The outside is pink and orange and the inside liner was made from a batik fabric with sunflowers in yellow, orange and burgandy.  I made a pocket for the outside of the front because the pink plaid had a small discoloration there.

A BAG FOR THE GIRLS

 I started making a bag from old denim yesterday for Sew Powerful, who send reusable hygiene products to young girls in Africa.  They are asking volunteers to make bags to include with the pads.  I didn't have the webbing for the bag's strap, so I set it aside until I could get some.

Today I made another one, this time making the strap from fabric.  I used some orange woven plaid fabric for the outside and a blue fabric for the inside.
