I learned to sew today! Yipee!! I am so excited I finally figured it out. My MIL sent me a sewing machine for my birthday last October. I wanted to learn but I felt intimidated as I have never been around a sewing machine before. Thanks to a couple of great youtube videos I now can sew. Last week I took my three year old daughter to Joann's fabric. She picked out these two fabrics, and I set out determined this time to learn to sew her a bag for her ballet stuff. I followed a wonderful tutorial. It is a reversible bag 13.5"x14". The only thing I messed up on is the straps. I put them on wrong. But, I am still proud of my first sewing project. I learned how not to do the straps on the next bag. I just finished it and Addison is sleeping. I can't wait for her to see it in the morning. Oh, I cut out the flower and the letter "A" on my cricut. So fun, so easy, and I am looking forward to my next sewing project :)
Here is my inspiration and the tutorial I followed...
