My first bag creation


So most people know that my mom makes amazing purses. When I told my mom that I needed a new hobby and was thinking about sewing (need something to help get me through this dissertation work since there's no disc golf nearby and playing bassoon all alone isn't much fun), Mom gave me a great sewing machine for Christmas. Now I have to do something with it!

So I made a yoga bag, which only further confirms that I'm my mother's daughter. It took 3/4ths of a professional football game and I more or less followed the directions from this site. I even added pretty stitching around the drawstring. Hooray!

Now I have one more reason to go to yoga! Hopefully the sanity from yoga will help me get my work done, right?
