Thrifting & sewing

I went to the local thrift store yesterday.

A while back I found a Pyrex mushroom bowl.

And yesterday I found another one in a small size.

I was so excited.

I also got the little glass bowl to use for a butter dish.

And I found this pattern from 1969.

I thought this was so cute.

Sewing for Alex.

This tote bag is for a guy who is opening a thrift shop

in Vancouver.

The name of the shop is "Fabtabulous".

And she ordered a few lunch bags.

Well not very exciting stuff, but that is what I have been doing.

I was looking for cute little boy fabric but

the selection was quite dismal.

Also working on more welders caps.

The guys are asking for them

Made 7 since yesterday.

But have lots more to do.

Here it is Corrine!!

I decided to try the free bag pattern I got from Hot Patterns. I used fabric I purchased at Ikea. Not sure why I purchased that particular fabric on account of I really don't care for it much. I think my brain just goes stupid when I get into a fabric department. The bag is really quite large. Here I have it hanging as you would wear it over your shoulder.

This is the other view of it with the magnetic snaps done up. I think they made a mistake about the placement of the snaps because you cannot wear over your shoulder with snaps done up!!
