Sewing on my Birthday

Sewing is always a good thing and I was able to enjoy my sewing room tonight. Cake is a good thing, I was able to enjoy cake (2 pieces) on my birthday. Family is a great thing, I was able to have dinner with my family (except college girl). So all around it was a great birthday.

What did I sew? Something for college girl to give her Little Sister in her sorority. A new purse from this cute fabric, Robert Kaufman's Hooty Owls . It is sold out at Sew Mama Sew and college girl loved it. Owls are important to their sorority, what is it? I can't remember, not mascot but something. I am sure there are some Chi-O's out there that can tell me. Anyway, I found it on ebay, hurray. Sew Mama Sew is getting more in mid-October but college girl needs it my October 7th.

Here it is:




Inside - BTW, the Hooty Owl matches some Amy Butler exactly!!


Personalized the handle.


Now to make one for college girl, the handle on it will say Chi O Big.

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

    It was hubby's birthday, too, but I didn't get any sewing time at all in honor of the occasion!

    I love the bag - beautiful fabric combinations and a great style. The embroidered handle is a clever addition and makes it such a special, personal gift.

    That bag is adorable. Your daughter's little sis is sure to love it!

    I just ordered an embroidery machine. Should arrive tomorrow. It was bad enough before but I may never leave my sewing room now!
