Bags in the wild<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I talked a little<\/a> about the random things we did and saw in Portland the other day. There were also several bags that I have made which made the trip with us.<\/p>\n

\"My<\/a>

I didn’t want to bring A Place for Everything, which would have carried everything, but it is big. I was trying not to bring my entire workroom, so I brought my Take a Stand\/Without a Trace bag<\/a>. Using the supplies I fit in this bag, I knew I would be able to work on La Pass Month 18. In it I stuffed my La Pass Sew Together Bag<\/a>. To carry my La Pass thread, I brought the Inside Outside pouch<\/a>, pattern from Aneela Hoey<\/a>. Both of these bag fit snugly in the Take a Stand.<\/p>\n

I keep the Sew Together Bag handy when I am working on La Pass, because it has everything I need. I know it is hard to see what is going on, but trust me, it is super useful.<\/p>\n

We stopped to stay with Mary and Michel on our way home. Mary wants to make this bag and we spent a lot of time talking about the construction.<\/p>\n

It was useful to have everything I needed fitted into the Take a Stand.  I knew nothing would fall out, so I didn’t have to worry. I also didn’t have to change bags in order to make everything fit.<\/p>\n

Mom also brought her Take a Stand. I am not 100% sure what was in there, but it was hanging around the house.<\/p>\n

She also brought her Percheron Pouch<\/a> with her, which I didn’t photograph in situ. She used it a lot. It houses a crochet project I bought for her that she has been working on for quite awhile. She had a big space she could use to lay the piece out so she could see what she was doing. If I remembered the pattern, I would share, but I don’t.<\/p>\n

i really enjoy seeing my gifts in use.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
