Farmer's Market

A great day with the boys. Still feeling our way around this summer thing. It's been a few years since I have been home during their vacation, so we are all adjusting. I did get some work done this morning:
Another Messenger bag for my etsy shop. Made from recycled wool slacks and the lovely Amy Butler fabrics. I really love the way the fabrics came together on this one. And I am loving this pattern again. After making a dozen custom orders for the teachers, I kind of needed a break, but now I am loving it again. The pattern is by the lovely Meg at SewLiberated.com.
I also finished another project that has been on my to do list forever:


A lunch tote made with a vintage pillow case. So cool! My first time working with iron-on vinyl (the interior) and also insulbright which will help keep the temperature stable inside the bag. That's assuming I put it facing the right way. I will definitely be making more of these. Pretty quick and stinking cute!

Took/dragged the boys to the Farmer's Market as well:




First time to bring all of them and it was really fun! They enjoyed picking out the veggies, all the free samples and the strawberries! So good. We'll definitely do that again.
