although I am very lucky to own 

one of these gorgeous leather camera

bags by Grafea sometimes I just want

to grab one camera and shove it

in my handbag:

not practical:

this summer I envied my friend Suzie's 

ingenuous drawstring bag ....

so I cut up an old skirt

{it was far too short for an old girl anyway}

turned over the top edge:

cut some wadding and a lining:

made a fabric sandwich:

sewed up the sides and bottom:

thread ribbon through the top:

safe padded pouch for my baby:

Libbie got all jealous 

so I made her one too

with a Liberty fabric offcut:

brillz!
