I promised some pics of my art sack (and pencil case — coming soon) before school started. Well… the first week is over and I’m finally sitting a my personal computer and not the school’s computer. We did have this ready for T3’s first day and she loves it. The kids kept asking her where they could buy one (too bad I don’t have the time right now!) The inspiration came from saltwater kids and I used the same tut she did from made. I lined my fabric with iron-on vinyl so I used french seams to hide the rough edges. I zig-zagged the edges that couldn’t have a french seam (serger is still packed – no, the basement isn’t done, therefore no sewing room right now.)
