A Cindy Original

Hello!

A friend of mine asked me if 

I would make a bag for her niece,

who will be having a new little one soon.

Absolutely!

As my blogger friend, Melissa, tells me,

"Let the fabric speak to you".

So I looked in my stash and found this little cutie.

As I was 'listening',

the bunting and the hedge hogs were just begging to be brought into the bag.

I fussy cut the hedge hogs and had just enough of this twill left

to create this little addition on to the bag.

The twill came from The Little Red Cottage.

I had to order more since that was my last little bit.

Now isn't that a shame?

:)

I also brought in some extra detail.

I thread painted the flower and actually painted the stem and leaves.

And what is a bag without some pockets and a place to put your keys?
(I think my sister needs this...she is CONSTANTLY misplacing her keys!)

Finally, I made my own little label to mark the bag with.

From what I hear the bag was a success, which makes me incredibly happy.

What projects have you been working on?

xoxo
