The bag is beautiful with metallic threads running thro it which my photo does not show up. At the moment I have my camera in it but it will be useful to carry my mobile and keys on a day out. Thank you Anna and I hope you enjoy the next year of blogging. If you haven't visited Anna's blog you should, her work is inspirational.
I shall have to experiment with making cords on my new machine.......any tips would be appreciated!
I was planning to sew today but I haven't got there yet.......blame blogland....again! I did fuse some fibre together this morning after I'd done a bit of ironing:
It is a piece of calico that I painted previously with inks and I've layered Angelina, scrim, dyed by Purplemissus, organza and chiffon. I'm going to have a go at FME and then burn back some of the layers with my soldering iron. Of course, I am almost paralysed with fear at actually machining on it. Where do I start? Shall I sew in a pattern or just randomly? Which stitch shall I use? You can see why I'm such a slow worker can't you? Get on with it Girl!!!!!!!!

The calico looks gorgeous, I bet you will make a stunning piece with it. Look forward to seeing it finished.

Sometimes its a good idea to procrastinate when you've created a wonderful piece of fabric just waiting for stitch. Once you get going there will be no stopping you - look forward to seeing the finished product.
Annas bag is lovely - lucky you.
