Busy weekend

Last weekend was a long weekend in Southern Tasmania and I managed to pack so much into it.

I started off on Friday night to make a bag, finished last night.  This bag is HUGE! All your sewing bibs and bobs can be packed in here ready to head of to a gossip sewing day or maybe it could be an overnight bag for a weekend getaway.  I downloaded the pattern from Martingale,  absolutely free.  It is called the Fat Quarter Bag by M'Lissa Rae Hawley.

I managed to fit in a bit of gardening as well, so pleased with how it is going.  Of course I had another trip to the tip,  my seventh! I had dug out these poles a while ago but what a job dragging them out of the garden,  had to flex the muscles I can tell you.




I went off to the movies to see Philomena,  fabulous movie,  very confronting and so sad but well worth seeing.  Of course my son and the grand dog came around for a meal as well.


Then yesterday I delivered a birthday gift to my sister-in-law,  another bag, this time in Indigo Crossing by Minick and Simpson, love that fabric.  I tucked a couple of little surprises in it as well.




What a weekend, I had so much fun.

  1. well done on finishing your bag, I see you have found goodies to pack in it.
    lovely gift for your sil, love those fabrics!
    did you get frequent flyer points for your tip visits? lol
    Saw Philomena too and loved it, am trying to read the book too, but it makes me so sad and angry.
