Sunday sewing

I had a lovely day today making myself a tote bag.  I bought the pattern and material in Paris at a gorgeous little patchwork shop called Le Rouvray.  The material is their own design and is called Romance de Paris. 

It has only taken me a year to get around to it but ♥ it.

First there was one

but I couldn't waste the material so I had to make another.  I bought the kit thinking I would make one but the contents were very generous so suddenly there were two. 
Two very cute giraffes from Bunny Hill Designs.

Last minute

Made this last night for a work colleagues birthday today. Why do I always leave things to the last minute!

Just popping in quickly. ..

To show you my current WIP. I know I have been MIA recently but will be back before the weekend with some of my finishes.

I bought this material about 3 years ago so decided that it was time I did something with it. The easiest pattern I could think of was the disappearing 9 patch that I originally saw on Sarah's blog but now all over the Internet.  Some good YouTube videos too.

Here are a couple of shots I took last night.
 
the pile ready to be pieced, went from LARGE squares to tiny ones!
Taking shape, maybe some sewing needs to be done tonight!
So BBIM, BDIB and BFRB happy now I have put something up, lol!
