I decided to make some Sew Together Bags<\/a> as gifts. I know I have whined and complained about making them before, but I was reminded how useful they are when I was using my Embroidery Sew Together Bag<\/a> for Craft Night. I have a couple of friends for whom I want to make something special and these will also be useful.<\/p>\n

I know I should be working on the UCAB<\/a>! I can’t seem to get myself to do it, but I really need to get it done.<\/p>\n

\"Cutting<\/a>
Cutting for STB gifts – November 2020<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I spent the day on Wednesday cutting the pieces. I didn’t get all the way through the fusible nor did I have time to quilt the outside, but I am much farther along than I was before I started.<\/p>\n

I didn’t bring the binding fabric, so I have to cut that, but all the other fabric pieces are cut.<\/p>\n

Even though it is fiddly, I do want to make a pincushion for each bag. I have added them to all of my Sew Together Bags and I think it is a very useful feature.<\/p>\n

\"Piecing<\/a>
Piecing for Sew Together Bag Exterior<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

One thing I am going to do is to try and embellish the outside. I am going to add a little piecing to the exterior. The pattern, which I have said is basic at best, talks briefly about ’embellishing’ the outside, but doesn’t give specifics. Since I have two Sew Together Bags of my own, I measured the outside of one of them and have an idea of where to place the added piecing. It will look something like the above example.<\/p>\n

I read some of my posts again and found that this is a hard project. I have some good advice<\/a> for myself. I will try to take it. \ud83d\ude09 I know that I will be able to do them relatively quickly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
