My best friend's daughter, M, turned 19 this March and I wanted to do something a bit fun. Yes, I know I'm a bit late doing this post, more on that later.
I sewed up this zip bag (got the idea from one of my favourite blogs, Noodlehead. She has a great tutorial on how to make different sizes. I made a matching tissue holder. Thought this would be a good 'set' for travelling considering M was going to France this summer.
Oh and I put in my favourite Gin into the bag for a giggle. I was asked if it was from London and I said yes, but I purchased it at the LBS (liquor board store for those not in SK)!
I love the photo of my daughter and Monique - they are so sweet together.
Of course they are personalized...I wouldn't want her mum pinching her bag and tissue holder!
Which brings me to the gift I gave to her mum a few days later. Guess it's just the right size for make-up brushes! I lined this one with remnants of her napkin gift given last year.
The fabric are spare pieces from the quilt I made from my bed, from Prairie Chicks in Hague (soon to be Warman, which my pocketbook is dreading as it's much closer to my house.)
This post is hysterical and inspiring!
