Crafty girls

Brian and I headed to the airport with my family around 4:30 this morning. I was really sad to see them go, but we had a great visit. I have one or two more posts about things we did during the week, but I'm still working on getting my photos uploaded.

In the meantime, check out the bag Amiya and I made together. I bought some fabric from Ikea with a black and white leaf pattern and Amiya and I used fabric markers to color some of the leaves. Then I sewed it into a shoulder bag. I used this tutorial again and decreased the size by 2 inches on each side and the bottom. I think I also made the strap shorter, but I should have made it a little thinner as well. The new size is just right for Amiya.

The bag is reversible, so Amiya picked out some black fabric with pink polka dots for the other side. I think she really enjoys modeling the bag.
