The first one is for her aunt (I think) who has battled cancer. She has taken the ladybug as a symbol of hope for herself. So, a ladybug bag it is!
I used the satin stitch on my sewing machine to applique my flamingo and ladybugs.
Please disregard the Christmas header. I thought I had saved my old template, but actually I hadn't, so it isn't an easy restore. : ( New look coming! Soon I hope!
The bags are great! I especially like the lady bugs :)

ReplyDeleteJessica, all the main fabrics are from Joann's 45" home dec line. They made a very sturdy bag!
Mary, how about a cat applique? ;)
Megan, thanks!
Sarah, it wasn't hard, but I've practiced a lot with the name pillows I've been doing. I was NOT good at it when I first started!
