Self Imposed Challenge of the Day

 My sewing machine has been stored away since before Christmas, but today I'm going to pull it out and attempt to make a cute bag for my turquoise loving sister who turns 22 in a few days.  Her party is tonight, so the pressure is on to produce something quickly.  Let's see if Leif can keep himself happily busy so Mama can do the same!

I enjoy making my patterns up as I go (at least that's what I tell myself - I'm really intimidated by actual patterns) but these are a few bag plans that I would love to take on some day:

Buttercup Bag via Made By Rae
The Weekender Travel Bag by Amy Butler via Sew Mama Sew
T-Shirt Bag via Martha Stewart

As I was searching for inspiration I also stumbled across this free pattern for a bra purse.  Yep, it's made from an actual bra.  I don't think I'll ever be attempting this one, but it was just too good to not share!

  1. Love the buttercup bag... if you feel inspired to sew 2! I am attempting 4 dog beds this weekend (we'll see how that turns out)! You have inspired me to sew 4 lines (x 4)!
