This is the bag I received from my first ever swap...
She made a very cute bag. She asked if I could line it myself. I think I can, I will just have to find some fabric that I think suits it. It is sort of a fancy little bag, maybe something silky/satiny.
Lastly, I have joined another swap, that has a hand theme. I already have the lotion and nail polish, and thought to make some mitts. I am having some trouble making some that I like. These are the "rough draft" so far
The girl they are for is probably a little edgier than I am, so I am worried they are a little too conservative. Oops, I hope she doesn't read this, and ruin her surprise. Oh well, if she does she can tell me if she hates them or not.
I rescued the yarn from a doomed sweater so, I still need to wash them with some fabric softer, and block them a little. I was actually thinking of making some like the ones I made for Isabelle, but a little longer, however, she doesn't like acrylic yarn, which is what the turquoise yarn is, so I didn't want to inflict that upon her....

The turqouise lacy things look great - a perfect way to dress up even the simplest of shirts! What a great purse to recieve as a swap gift, hopefully you can find the perfect fabric for it. Good luck on your next swap too!
Thank you. The swap things are all sort of exciting. Now if I weren't so insecure about these mitts....
