A work in progress

I am working these days on those lovely bags for my lovely friend in Jeddah who ordered 10 of them mashallah! Well luckily I have 2 already done and now i still have 8 to go, I cut all the fabric together, then sew them together at one time, now they are all ready for the batting and assembling of the bag, I feel like I forgot how to sew these bags since I stopped for a long time, but I think after the first one it will all come back to me.
Hmm maybe then I need to do 9 instead of 8 just in case..



My favorite part of making these bags is choosing the fabric and color combinations.. With all the fabric I have I still feel limited with my choices, I need to have a fabric store! Because I use 4 different fabrics for a bags face ( other two for the inside) I usually find three good ones and one missing..! well but I manage to get me something that works, I absolutely refuse to be on the safe side always having neutrals as my color combinations, the stranger the colors are ,the more I feel happy. I just hope people who will buy the bags agree with me..
I think these bags are only for the brave at hearts..!

Well before I go I want to share the view from my crafts room window, I added some fake flowers to make it more pretty, and I still want to paint a bird house to add there.. I think maybe I need more flowers.. what do you think? (aside from the fact that the windows need cleaning!)
