La Dora Wrislet

This is the first time i got an opportunity to test the La Dora Wrislet by Whitmoyer Creations. I was so excited when i got to know that i am one of the testers for this pattern. Immediately i started to grab all the stuff required to complete it.I got all that was required for testing as it was just with two fat quarters .

Usually when we try to go for shopping we just try to grab our wallets,phone ,handbags and stuff which we might or might not require all of them for shopping .

The Retreat Bag

I got an opportunity to meet up with the Arizona Sew and Sews group on this project of working on a Retreat bag.I learned a lot of new techniques and as well as a lot of inspiration from the ladies .I thoroughly enjoyed myself interacting with them as well as felt lot happier to find a similar group I can learn with.I am really thankful for Betsy,Lou my teacher,Slvia and Susan.Am lot happier to interact with Helen and MaryAnn and few other mates .Genie’s treat apple pie cake  was too delicious and it fed my hungry tummy 😉

Waiting to meet all of them again on another project !!!!

I just loved the way the zipper has turned out.The shape ,the space it gives you to keep your stuff is huge.Now this elephant printed smaller version of the bag is for my Elder son and the larger one is for myself to carry my sewing accessories .

This time i couldn’t get some good pictures of this bag as half way thru my boyz came and there ends the photo shoot of the bags and have to take some clicks of my boyz 🙂

Have a great day!!!!
