New bag and pouch

-

Sometimes you just want to make something for yourself!

After putting a new face on my bag! I wanted a pouch to hold my little things (money, checkbook, wallet, pen, Chapstick, and receipts! Then keep my crocheting project in the bottom of the big bag (2 balls of yarn, crochet hook, and the current scarf). The satchel is large enough to stuff my iPad in when needed! Everything, in one place ready to go.
Now, I just need to find somewhere to take it!

I love all these fabrics together! The green zipper really makes the colors "pop"!

All done! I hope it looks like an artists bag! Unique like me!

Fabrics: all pulled out of the big scrap bin!

What do you think?

Thank you for stopping by "In The Boon Docks"

Until next time my friends, create and be unique! Lisa

    I hear you about sometimes just needing to do a "for me" project! Very cute. LOVE the pezzy dots with that bright green zip, a very pop-y combo.

    Love the colors and love what you did to the larger bag to make it your own. Thanks for your advice about the app for my tablet. I have it downloaded and will try it.

Cartwright Seam Ripper Giveaway

Welcome my friends and those who maybe visiting for the first time! Today, I am so excited to introduce you to a true West Virginian Artesian, Greg Cartwright , of Cartwright's Creations . His items are sold in historical shops throughout West Virginia. He is a lover of reclaimed wood of historical nature and creator of works of art! Greg (Cartwright's Creations) & I A note from Greg Dear Readers I have provided two seam rippers to Lisa so she can have one and one to give away. They are both made from beautiful old growth oak which was reclaimed from the original train depot in Weston (Lewis County), West Virginia. Train service was established in Weston around 1880. This wood is representative of a great part of my passion for this venture in woodworking for me – that is finding wood with a story to it. I must admit that my main focus is pens and pencils but it really doesn’t matter what I am making as long as it is from wood (although I have recently added pens...

Update This Giveaway is closed! And the winner is ... #105 gpc March 5, 2014 at 12:13 PM I follow your blog! :) Think Ruffles Blog Hop Welcome to "In The Boon Docks" and Day 1 of the "Think Ruffles Blog Hop"! My name is Lisa and I am so happy you are here today to see my quilt with ruffles! I have to thank Madam Samm @ Sew We Quilt and Amy (Head Cheerleader)@ Sew Incredibly Crazy for arranging this great hop! What is a ruffle? There are lots of different kinds and Madam Samm left it open to interpretation. She showed us how to make some and at the time I was thinking; ruffled bloomers, ruffled dresses, ruffled pillows. Then I saw a quilt in a magazine with what looked like ruffles! I kind of browsed through the issue of Quilt-it today , March/April 2014 issue and left it in my rocking chair and went to work. The second time I read the "Garden Path" pattern by Ann Baxter, (I had already made the quilt), it read "ruching", you don...
