Cats on cats.

I made these cute stuffed kitties with a cat print from joann's fabric and a vintage pattern.   The nephews seemed to like the candy I gave  them more, sigh.

Birthday Bag of Warewolves

Way back in the Autumn I bought some Alexander Henry "October Moon" fabric from Joann's with the intention of making some bags for my "Twilight" watching friends.  Today was my friend's birthday, so I finally got around to finishing the bags.

Here's the finished project.

Bag One: This is a canvas bag with cotton pockets.

Interior.  Fully lined with "October Moon."  This bag is entirely reversible.  The recipient immediately turned it inside out, which made me very happy.

Straps, made out of the same brown Vinyl that made up the body of the bag, just the other, soft side of the fabric.

Stitches!

I saved these New Moon cups from the movie theater because I knew I would have some kid of gift to put in them eventually.  This seemed just right.
