That looks just the job Lisa, everything you need in one place, the little bag is so sweet, your sister is a lucky girl to get that as a pressie :D

I love your cutting at with the hanger, that makes so much sense :wink:

What a great looking bag you made in your spot. Congrats Lisa

Wow, great sewing spot, everything on hand and organised, I LOVE that!

The bag is so stylish - is that Wuthering Heights by Moda? I especially like the scalloped edge to the flap and the choice of button tones really well with the fabrics - great choice, can I be your sister? :D !

Beautiful spot, and an absolutely fantastic bag jbs!

I have chills - I have the charm pack & some fat quarters from that line out right now, and the 4 patches are sewn together for a shopping bag....

What a great spot you have!! And, an awesome purse for your sis!! Aren't you proud?!! I would be if I could get a purse to look that good for me:)LOL Yea for you-you deserve it!! Skeat

jbsstrawberry 03-24-2009 09:05 AM

Thanks everyone, I'm very happy to be able to sew again!!! I needed my fabric fix in a BIG BIG way LOL.

I have no idea what fabric line it is...Linda's bag was made from bits and pieces I got in a grab bag from a quilt shop.


Yes, that is my baby on the table, a Brother cs6000i that my wonderful JB got for me Christmas before last. I actually got a freebie Brother with the cabinet too, a little no frills sewing and mending Brother. Haven't fired it up yet...but I think it's going to be my "downstairs" machine. That way I won't have to run up and down the stairs so much LOL.

The little bag is now filled with "stuff". My sister is very clean hands conscious (as we really all should be) and hates "nasty". So, I filled it with hand sanitizer, rubber gloves, lysol to go, clorox clean up wipes to go, rubber gloves, and a bunch of other anti-nasty stuff. It's kind of a gag gift that she's gonna get a good giggle and lots of use from. OHHH I forgot the best one!! I found a roll of Charmin to go in a plastic dispenser LMBO. I know there's been a time or two every lady wished she had one of those in her bag LOL.

Thanks for all the nice comments y'all!! You are all so very sweet :-)

lynandcindy4ever 03-24-2009 09:29 AM

i was looking at your sewing machine is that a brother 6000si?
if so may i ask you a question about ir i also have the same machine.
i love the purse you made it's pretty

littlehud 03-24-2009 09:58 AM

Such a pretty purse and a very nice spot. You have the same sewing table I do. Love the way I can fold it up or keep it open. Mine is in the dining room so it's nice to be able to close it if needed.

Roben 03-24-2009 10:17 AM

For inquiring minds :D

The fabrics are the Cedar Mill Road line from Beratex, and they are yummy!

littlehud, I love it too!! Sauder makes some awesome stuff don't they! It's a perfect match for the computer desk my sister got me for Christmas a few years back (from Sauder too).
