a bag for a swap

Lately I've been participating in swaps over at swap-bot.com, which has been quite fun. For the latest swap I had to send something handmade. So ... if you're in that swap and your name is Clara, stop reading here (because I haven't sent it yet!).


I have a lot of fabric, so I'm going to try to use it by sewing stuff. I found a pretty simple tutorial for a bag which you can find here that I decided to use for the swap. I think the bag came out rather nicely, but next time I make one I'll probably change the fabric and shape.

   

Other stuff is in the works and hopefully my self-imposed deadlines hold fast. Now I'm off to actually do homework!
