Jule's New duffle

I took another sewing class today at my all time favorite sewing shop, Stitcher's Playhouse. Jule's was needed a new overnight duffle, and I just couldn't find one I loved for the price I wanted to pay. The ladies at the shop ALWAYS do a great job helping find the perfect fabric and help so much with teaching you tricks and tips to make a difficult job easier. Jules picked out the fabric a few weeks ago, some pre-quilted floral fabric (which made putting the bag together much easier), and today, we constructed it in the class.

Mary, at the shop, came up with the pattern. It's pretty easy, pockets on each side, and zipper closure. If you want to learn how to sew, or sew better, Stitcher's is the place to visit.

I so love these...

Amy over at Positively Splendid did these awesome bins made out of diaper boxes. Now, I don't have any diaper boxes laying around, yet, but I so love this idea. I may be saving up some boxes in the near future to make some of these for the bonus room bookcase.
