a bag and a blanket

I'm finally posting pictures!

My sister came over a week (or so) ago and requested I make her a bag from a pattern she found on http://www.burdastyle.com/ it's the first time I've ever attempted to create anything with a pattern before. I think it worked out pretty well.

The stripes on the fabric gave me a little bit of a headache...so the next bag I do will be with a cherry fabric for me.

In other craft news...I finally finished a blanket for Lyndon. It may not look that complicated...but I tore it apart and restarted it so many times I lost count. Thankfully I'm finished now so I can start working on other things.

Next on my list of things to do: a second bag (as mentioned above) and finishing a Stars themed blanket for Lyndon/Daddy. The Stars blanket has only been pulled apart 3 times so far...I'm hoping that will be it!
