That never really happens in this house. Usually the kids are hogging all my attention or I am too tired to even look at my sewing machine.
Today for some reason I felt the need to sew. Maybe playing in all my Japanese fabric got me in the mood. I am not sure. Either way I made a couple little boxy bottom zip pouches. The one pictured is Shinzi Katoh "3 Little Pigs." The inside is a blue dotted print. Unfortunately my camera battery died so I didn't get a lining shot or my other little gem, MY FAVORITE. It's okay though. I will take a photo of it tomorrow. I am contemplating keeping it for myself. I already have the Merry Merry one I couldn't part with so I guess I will have to let it go. I have so many zip pouches and purses lying around. I wonder what people do with their old things they make for themselves. I mean they are used so I don't want to sell any of it. It seems a shame to just toss it or throw it in a box to be stuffed in a closet or attic for who knows how long. I know some people give old handmade items to friends or family but I think my peeps have enough stuff like that from me. They probably have as much as I do. I have a feeling these things will all end up in some thrift shop when I am gone and it will be some thrilling find like what happens to me when I find some cute little vintage trinket or fabric item. It's weird to think of Shinzi Katoh vintage though…….
