Little Birds: 26 Handmade Projects to Sew, Stitch, Quilt & Love - book

Put them all together with a purse pattern I got from the  'Little Birds: 26 Handmade Projects to Sew, Stitch, Quilt & Love' craft book and you end up with a pretty cute zip up purse to use for bits and pieces. Good for carrying around a few craft items if you are going somewhere. It's about the size of a makeup bag. This book has absolutely gorgeous little projects by the way.

Yay! School holidays for 2 weeks now. Will probably be doing a few kids craft things over the next couple of weeks. Would love a little sleep in tomorrow. Here's hoping. Have a good weekend everyone.
