It Starts with an Idea


I get out the sketch pad and then start to work through making it-all the steps in my head first to be sure it works out.  Remember that pouch I made for the friend who was on crutches?  Well, she had an admirerer she wanted to gift a pouch to with a few modifications.

 I took the challenge.  (8 x 10", quilted shoulder pouch)

Nyki likes to stay nearby when I work-if I open this drawer, she won't lay on top of the fabric!

    Nice job on the quilted pouch!! Lucky friend!

    It's cool that cats like to lounge in drawers! (Although if my dog wanted to, I wouldn't think that was so cool!)

    Very nice pouch. What were the mods? I totally have to try the drawer thing with Gilbert. (He has a thing for baby alpaca yarn and has received a full batch of winter fur)

    I have never tried sketching something out and then making it. I might modify a pattern but it is on the fly. Nice pouch!
