While the boys all went to the Turkey Federation Banquet in Nephi last weekend I went to my Moms and helped Jenny sew this great bag. It is an Amy Butler pattern. I love all of Amy Butlers fabrics and patterns. They are so cute. I bought this pattern a while ago but had never attempted to sew one, so on Saturday, Jenny and I sewed one up. It was pretty easy and went quick with two of us. I just bought the fabric to make one for myself. I am so excited and can't wait to get it done! I LOVE this bag. I have to say I was quite proud of Jenny. She has never sewn, but is getting pretty handy with the sewing machine. Good job Jenny! I have also posted some of my latest sewing projects.
It is lined and has three pockets inside.
This is the cutest little baby blanket I made for a gift. This was so easy, and I love the jumbo rick rack! I have fabric to do a couple of boy ones that should be cute too.APRONS!!!!!
I finally finished a couple of aprons, that we made for our little sewing group. It is the
Emmeline Apron. You can order the pattern on line here. It is reversible and so fun to sew. I am kind of addicted and have definitely caught the sewing bug. Here are some pics of the ones I have finished.

I am not very good at picking out fabric yet, but I am learning. I just wish it wasn't so dang expensive. I thought I would post some of the fabric I have gathered to make more of these cute little babies. Tell me what you think. I am going to make them for b-day gifts for my sisters and inn-laws, Thanks for the idea Jane, So Fun!!!

Holy Cow! Those aprons and the bag are darling, i think you are doing great with the fabric choices! Good job Jenny too! I have fallen behind in my gifts, I still owe my sister in laws from the december birthdays when we moved. I still haven't unpacked my sewing machine. Now that the wedding/ragnar etc. are over I have to speak in church and take the family for a spring break vacation and then I will think about it. fun fun!! Great job!
I love them all, The bag turned out so cute! Go JODY!!
Love the bag and blanket! You are so crafty. I too love fabric and could spend all day looking at it.
I love your choice in fabric. I want to take a sewing class, but I need to wait until I get my other classes done.
Great job!
Wow Martha Stewart!! Very impressive, i love the bag and am a huge "Amy butler" fan. I am making the cutest Quilt right now with the Amy Butler material for Ivy, it's turquoise with pinks, i can't wait to show you.
When you come out here next you should try "American Quilting" i love that store!
you are soooo talented! sheesh--these are all super cute! i especially love the bag and i can't believe you made a lined one like that. i think you got an overdose of talent genes.
