Better Dressed Child: One Thimble Blog Tour

Ohhh I looove being part of a blog tour! Today I am your stop on the blog tour for the e-magazine One Thimble. Can I ask you where in the world have I been? How is it they are on issue 6 and I am just now hearing about One Thimble? Wow, everything is absolutely adorable, and kinda a steal since there are always a bunch of PDF patterns included in each issue. Issue 6 has 10 PDF patterns included plus a whole bunch of additional information. I now need all issues : ).

Ok so lets get on with the tour.

I have two PDF patterns to share today! I am a

lways sewing up clothes so I thought I would shoot for something a little different. I chose the Outta Time Tote and the adorable Woodland Creatures Finger Puppets. Both patterns are included in issue 6 of One Thimble and also available as a single pattern purchase on the One Thimble website. I was a bit nervous. For one because I had a very busy couple weeks and could not get to sewing the bag until the last minute. And two, because I have never sewn a bag before. Silly me as usual, the bag was a very easy sew and fun to make. I loved the sneaky ways to conceal seams and creating very perfect pockets.

I used the Ballet Class In Pink by Alexander Henry for the outside of the bag. And a white with pink pin-dots for the lining.

Mila is just about two. Maybe still a little young for ballet class. I am just not so sure if I can wait for ballet class to use this bag (which by the way is the perfect size for a ballet class bag)

The finished bag measures 12"wide by 14"tall and 3"deep. Really it's the perfect size for anything and a great item to sew up for craft shows!

Now I said I have the opportunity to share about two items. So make sure to check back later today for the Woodland Puppets. Oh and there are a bunch of us Pattern Revolution Members blogging about what you will find in issue 6 so make sure to check out all the stops! I've been seeing allot of awesome stuff along the way!!! : )
