Little Jilly Bag!

 

 

hi there!

 

i was thinking of all those who've entered my giveaway yesterday

who have more than one little girl needing a bag...

 

so i set out to make another one just in case it's needed
or
it could be second prize.

 

weeeell a funny thing happened...

catastrophic at the time really.

 

i was busy cutting out the red spotty lining

then cut out the little squares at the bottom edges so that it has a base...

then

oh, no!

i realised i'd cut them out at the top not the bottom...aaarrrahagggg!

 

but then not only did i make one mistake...hehe

but another..

i was measuring the amount needing to be taken off the other side of the bag

&

whooops!

i took off a full half inch more on that side.

 

well i evened it up...

&

it became shorter,

but sweeter i think!

 

talk about making strawberry jam out of squished strawberries..hehe!

 

i've also made the front pocket wider...

so i thought it needed a completely new name

so it's my "little jilly bag".

 

if you want to enter the giveaway...

just comment on the previous post.

it's still going 'til sunday night.
