2020 - 27th February - throwback thursday - Morsbags 2010

Each week/month, I will try and re-post a blog and see what I was doing ten years ago with One Project A Month and making things in general - as these are old posts, any links are still in place.

February 2010 - Making Morsbags
It's the end of the month again, well I started off at the beginning of the month making one thing and ended up at the end of the month finishing two other things instead, so at least I know I will have something finished for next month....

The trouble is I've started too many things at once, I've started another shoulder bag from Ikea fabric, another peg bag (more Makower fabric), cut out fabric for two quilts (one is going to be a patchwork from cream and pink floral fabrics and the other is seaside fabrics, pebbles, boats etc I can't wait to finish that one!) and I've still got the lilac heart duvet cover/rag quilt to finish from last year yet! Oh and I've made seven more Morsbags as well this month,which now takes my total to 88!

Shoulder bag no 8 - which I started last year, it's made from cream fabric and some lovely floral fabric, but it's not really turned out how I imagined it would and I've stitched the button loop on the back instead of the front, oops!

  At least I've managed to stitch the lining in without too many problems, you can't see it very well from these photo's but the lining is a rust colour, the same as the flowers.
Hopefully spring is just around the corner so I've made my second peg-bag of the year. I just had enough left over from my Mum's rag quilt to make a patchwork peg-bag using this lovely garden design fabric from Makower.

I'll be updating my Etsy shop shortly as both items are for sale.
