Fu..Fu..Fu..Funkay!!!

I've been dyeing to have a go at some oilcloth bags since the material arrived last week, but I had to get my orders done first.

Hot off the sewing machine is my pebble bag :



I've got more oilcloth with photographic images of ice-cream, strawberries and flowers!!!

Guess what I'm going to be doing tonight...?

[Annette]

Mmmm like that JBJB - can't wait to see the icecream oil cloth - what's it like to work with?

[Buttonberry]

Thats great! Love it How did you find the Oil Cloth?

Annette - I found it to be quite a challenge when i made an apron as it didn't glide nicely even with a walking foot but when i made something double sided so all the shiny was inside, it worked great!

Ice-cream

Hi Annette - it's actually not too bad to work with. Fortunately my overlocker is quite forgiving and chomps it's way through most things! Here is the ice-cream one (just finished!)

[JBJB]

Strawberry....

And that's it for now ... going to have some tea!

Especially the strawberry one.

Really lovely, like the pebbles and the ice cream and strawberry make me hungry.

Well done.

Crickey you can whip them up. They all look fantastic. Well done

[swirlyarts]

You do work fast!! I love the pebble one!

Strawberries.....

....love the strawberry one..I've been working with strawberry print cotton today, vintage stuff. Not making bags though.

Can I mention one teeny thing? Reinforce your straps at the bottom of each one, so your webbing won't come unwoven if heavier things are put in the bags. I forgot to do that with my book bags and the handle webbing just pulled straight through the stitching....

( I'm going to be paranoid about buses on Thursday...)

They look absolutely lovely ... well done :-)

Nice... Love the strawbs one. Might do a strawbs snuggler (brain working overtime)

[Annette]

I really love all of those fabrics, they are so visual and mouth watering (literally),

Lisa - I love my overlocker, it'll do everything I've asked of it so far.

Wow! They look great! Well Done.
