Some people seemed pretty impressed with my bag that I made last week on my new sewing machine. It definitely has a few issues with it and it took me foreves just so you know (I'm not quit an expert sewer). I really think it's good that I signed up for a sewing class so I can learn how to do things the right way. That doesn't start until November though. So in the mean time I tried to make something easier. I remember seeing how to make a small zipper bag on this blog awhile back and thought it would be great to try. The zipper kind of scared me but I figured I would attempt it anyways. Plus I accidentally bought about twice as much fabric as I needed for that first bag so I had a bunch left over.
I seriously could not figure out how to pin this correctly on the last sewing step to make it so the zipper looked perfect but I just kind of made it up as I went. It didn't end up perfect but it's acceptable (to me). I will do better next time. These little bag are cool and I could use about 20 of them with all the junk I keep in my purse so I should get a lot of practice. I'm currently using this one for coupons.
What do you think?
Anyone taken up sewing yet?
Is your purse a mess?
