i took a cue from sarah over at plucky knitter and named one of my first creations. this is stella. i think she's a stella. it's a very retro 20's feeling fabric but with simplicity and a little bit of funk.
i still have to finish her other handle since i realized far too late that i had done a horrible job on the handles and couldn't fit the stinking thing back under the machine to fix them, so i had to come up with a by-hand solution. {maybe i should invest in some stinking patterns?!}
it was a difficult bag to say the least but i love her and can't wait to break her in this weekend. um. you know what i mean.

Cute! Loving that Freshcut fabric!
definately going back for more. i want to make a skirt out of it and some wrislets. i was debating buying it when i was there and now i love it.
you are awesome!
i can't wait to inherit my mom's nice sewing machine this summer and take sewing classes at the community tech school here.
adorable!
I love Stella - her and Doris could totally be BFF!
By the way - I want one!
sarah, we should totally arrange a play date.
I think you should consider carrying this down the aisle in Nigeria. It would look beautiful filled with African violets!
ha! :)
my grandma's name was Stella. :( Way to make me cry. I think you should give it to me so I can feel a little better.
is anyone else screaming "STELLAAAAA!" in there head when they read this?
what movie jen?
sorry mel, just think of it as a memorial to her. yes, my bag is my memorial to your sweet sweet grandmother. i think i'll name the next one Dottie, after my sweet sweet grandmother!
