More on the Two Superblooms

I am making good progress on the Superblooms, but not enough. I really want these to be finished today, so I can take my aunt’s to the post office and mail it. I also want to show at least one of them at the meeting on Saturday.  I don’t know if either will happen.

As you can see, I have made good progress. The exteriors are finished and the handles on my aunt’s are sewn on.

For my aunt’s Superbloom, I used cotton webbing for the handles that Cyndi made me take from the free table one time. It is wider than called for, but I think looks good with the exterior fabric.

The SMAP version is less far along. I had to rip the handles out twice. Hopefully, third time is a charm.

I’ll be working on the lining next and that is always the last step. I have a couple of interior zipper pockets for each bag to make and then lining assembly.

Almost there!
