Sew What Sunday II

Woo, pups! Dave here. Guide Dog for the Color Blind. With the hustle and bustle of the holidays (or Holly Days, as I like to say), we haven't prepared a Sunday Salute. Storm said I should show you some of the cool Christmas projects I helped Mom with instead! Cool!

Before I get started, though - we've been invited to a New Year's party! The Corgi Girls have a big bash planned, and we're going to party down with them. Why not meet us there!?!? It'll be THE party of the year!

OK! Here's a bag Mom and I made for Aunt Janet. (She sent us the cool flag for the Ao4 Headquarters, remember? Oh - the craftswoman who made it, Katie King, left a message on that post! She left her web address, so you can contact her about making you a cool flag, if you'd like!)

It's reversible - here's the inside:

And here's a close-up of the cell phone bag that clips to the strap:

We chose a gardening/recycled denim theme. Can you tell? Mom also made a little change purse. Hey, Kelsey Ann! It's got lady bugs on it! Woo!

She made earrings for Aunt Janet and her girls and our aunt-in-law (?) and her daughter and put each pair in a little mini purse like that. They were made from crystal beads that had been on earrings that belonged to Mom's grandma!

Here's another bag:

It's Mom's own design. She's calling it The Becca Bag. This one has coffee-themed fabric! Zimmie likes that idea!

The front flap has a magnetic snap. Mom had never put one in before, but it worked out real well!

And here's a peek inside at all the cool compartments:

Becca's earrings were in a mini bag within a mini bag! Take a look!

Cool, huh?

Here's a bag Mom is calling The Rachel Bag.

All those hexagons are hand-sewn, and so is the bag itself. The quilting was done by machine. Rachel loves purple, so I helped pick out a bunch of cool purples and stuff that goes with purple.

It started out like this:

Then Mom did something to get it 3-D. I think it was magic! Here's the little mini purse inside!

Sometime this week, I'll show you the purse we made for our grandma, if you're interested. I think this is enough sewing stuff for now, though!

Thanks for reading, everypuppy! And don't forget about Moxie and Izzie's party! See you at the Corgi Lounge!

Luv,
Dave
