This Saturday has been super for several reasons. The first is this really cute tote. I really, really like totes, so I sew a lot of them.
This one is so great because it once again features a great patterned vintage fabric. They just don't make the patterns as bright and vivid on most cottons anymore. And the fact that this fabric is still sound and not rotten, well, it just makes my day! The other super thing that happened was this purse.
It's a great linen blend that feels so neat and textured under your fingers. Inside's the best part though. I featured 3 compartment pockets and a magnetic snap closure. The magnetic snap is the newest upgrade to my sewing talents and I have to say that I am definitely a fan. They are just so professional and superior in every way to any other closure I've tried to date. So most of my purses and totes will feature this type of closure from now on. But the best part of this Saturday, the thing that made it the superest, was something my dear husband did. He built me a frame loom. This thing is the best ever. It works great, and seems to be rather quick to make a rug on. I'm hoping to add homemade rugs to my repertoire, although this first one will be for our home use only, because it's the one I'm learning on. So all in all, this Saturday was very productive, and exciting too!
