AMH Multi-tasker tote

 I finished the bag. Woohoo!!
I followed the pattern with a few adjustments. I used heavy interfacing on all the pieces (except the straps) and I lined and interfaced the pocket too. I also added a magnetic snap - but I did it after the bag was made and oopsy - it doesn't line up. That's ok, I can live with it. I just have to remember that if I make another one.

I love the size of this one. It's substantial although not as big as Amy Butlers Spice Market tote.
I probably made a mistake with the interfacing - and if doing if again, I would still use heavy, but only line the exterior pieces. Hopefully it will soften over time and use.

I didn't get my skirt cut out yesterday, so today I am finishing the placemat tops. Along with some serious baking. I have a few kilos of bananas that need using!

Have a happy day,

Almost

Monday & Tuesday were set aside to complete a bag. (I decided on the multi-tasker tote - as the other one needed my overlocker to be working and I cannot for the life of me, figure it out)
So Monday I cut it out - nice and cruisy.
Yesterday I started sewing. Then my time got interrupted with having to drop a car somewhere, and picking up the kids and somehow we ended up shopping. I did get some perfume ;o)
I got a package and I haven't even had time to open it yet. And my bag is just metres away, almost done.
SO today the plan is to finish the bag and cut the pieces for my skirt. There is alot so I may not get done but I will give it my best.
All in all - I'm just a little off track with my sewing plans this week.
So it's still looking alright.
Hope you have a happy day
