I had a request to make a bag for my niece for xmas. I searched the wonders of the web and found tiny happy's shoulder bag tutorial. It looked lovely, I searched the stash - and lo and behold, the astrobag:
I like it, in fact I want to keep it - but I shall just have to make myself another (and it reminds me I must find just the right frock to make out of the astrodot fabric!)

So nice to see astrodots escape the stash, even if it's only a little bit.
That looks like a very handy bag pattern. You will have to tutor me on the strap technique, when I decide to make one.
Perhaps you could make one on your forthcoming visit. It is pretty easy once you see it (just takes a bit of manipulation)
The bags are very cute and I love the Western shirt. My Mr wants another shirt for Christmas too, but I think he may be out of luck, Christmas is a bit close, and shirts are fiddly!
A Certain Person is going to LOVE it! I will hide your blog over the next ten days.
She is also about the bag these days. And sewing in general ... I want to find a suitable pattern to make a soft toy with her over the holidays, maybe using pretty fabrics from some of her old clothes I've saved from when she was little. Any ideas?
I'd do a search on 'softies', Delamare. Here is something to get you started: http://www.softiescentral.typepad.com/
