Summertime Adventures : Quilted Drawstring Bag

Hello there!!!

Another project to share for the Summertime Adventures at Clover and Violet. The theme for the second week is Out and About. Kat of Diary of Flutter Kat shared her tutorial on how to make a drawstring bag...and I choose to do a drawstring bag too ... but used my own pattern version(since I did not follow any tutorial). I name it Quilted Drawstring Bag with lining.

I used Sugar Pop by Liz Scott, and Bliss Polka Lime fabric which I bought from Sew Lux & Gifts combined with Paula Prass fabric which I bought at love me lots creations, an online shop locally owned by Ms. Zura. The size of the finished bag is 14"(W) x 3"(D) x 13"(H)

This bag is ideal for carrying small crochet or stitching hexagon project. It also can make a great gift wrap, travel pouch, or to keep children toys. In other word, it can be a great bag to take with you on the go!!

Happy sewing!!

This is how my sewing kit looks like...

April NewFO

Hi Everyone!!

I've been very busy for the past few weeks(office commitment)... and only today I'm able to share my April NewFO and sewing activities that took place in the month of April. I started the month of April by sewing two tops using the Wiksten pattern and join Kerry of VeryKerryBerry Tova Sew a-long.

Next were projects used half square triangle for the Half Square triangles festival at Canoe Ridge Creations.... I did a lunch tote... and a Sewing Machine Cover.

Another small project that I sew is the Emma clutch pattern that I received free from Jennie of
Clover & Violet for finishing the Ruby tote bag. For more photos on this you may click HERE.

I also did have a new quilt block sew using my scraps...which I did not post about it in the month of April...this is how it looks like. All the blocks are done and just waiting to be joined together...

Other activities that involved sewing were... my Rose Garden quilt. I managed to finished sewing all the blocks and it's ready to be joined.

I finished stitching the embroidery for my Garden Step Block #3 for the Stitch & Quilt Along
that I joined at Clover & Violet.

April month is also full with happy moments... I received both my prizes that I won in the month of April..I would say this is my happiest birthday presents that I've ever received....fabrics from oversea.

The first prize was from Sharon of Vroomans Quilts for her 400 giveaway ...
which were Friendship and Bella solid charm pack.

...and secondly was a prize I won for my entry in the Festival of Scrappiness hosted by Rachel of
Stitched in Color. The prize was sponsored by Mad About Patchwork
