I made my pre-schooler a tote bag for school tonight. He is not at all excited about the idea of school, so I thought if he picked out the fabric he might be more interested in the process of getting ready for school. He picked out this home dec fabric at JoAnn's this week.
And it was a no brainer to line it in Pokemon fabric!
I started making this bag with directions from Amy Karol's Bend-The-Rules Sewing...but got utterly lost immediately! So I went back to the tutorial Terri has on her blog. The only thing I added was boxing the corners...following these directions. Hugo is happy with the finished product...although he is no more excited about school.
I like the first one, but I love the bottom one.
ReplyDeleteI prefer the bottom one!
ReplyDeletei vote for the bottom
ReplyDeleteI love the second one...
ReplyDeleteOh hope he enjoys school! That's a very cool bag. Oliver want's to go straight from 3 to 5. He turns 4 next month! Eech.
I like the bottom one too!
ReplyDeleteThe bottom one! =)
ReplyDeleteCute bag! I absolutely love the bottom quilt layout. The first one is great too, but something about those wonky diamonds in the second is so awesome.
ReplyDeleteFun polka-dotty bag! I prefer the bottom photo - looks like fun!
ReplyDeleteWow I really like them both, but if pressed I'd pick the bottom one. Can't really go wrong here though!
ReplyDeleteBoy, that's a tough choice, but I think I prefer the second option. Lucky little Hugo to have a new bag -- I hope he loves his new school. Good Luck this week!
ReplyDeleteJenny, adorable bag! You are such a great mom!!! I love both settings but have always wanted to play with the top picture setting... fun fun fun!
ReplyDeleteHehe! I agree I'm loving the wonky hourglass thing! And you get lots of super mom points for making your little guy a bag to help him with school! I hope he's loving it!
