Quickie bag....

Today, I did a bit of cleaning - I know, I'm as shocked as you are! - and found a pencil case I made AGES ago, but also found the fabric I made it out of. Coincidentally, it's the same fabric I used for my Economy Block doll quilt, so I whipped up a quick library bag to go with it. 

The fabric itself is a bit flimsy, so I lined it with some curtain lining to give it some body. Not too bad for a quickie.... :)


Also found a piece of awning off cut (I have quite a few rolls of assorted widths and colours) and some corduroy, and used the off cut to make the base. It's really easy to sew and holds its shape really well! As long as it's a simple seam, though.....
