Bags in class

Ellen's Roomy Denim Bag

Juanita's giant library bag
Ellen finished her Roomy Denim Bag today.
The lining fabric is just divine. She pattern matched the inside pocket
with the postcard on the print.

Juanita has finished another library bag, this time for her daughter.
She also added a giant zippered pocket on the outside because when
is a bag used for just one purpose?

ASG June Meeting

For our June meeting, Gay had us in stitches.
If you know me you'll know I'm not a fan of hand stitching, but it was fun to have all of us sitting and stitching together.
Next month we are making Mug Rugs for Meals on Wheels, or
working on our own projects.

We meet on the first Wednesday of each month to
"share and further the art of sewing"

There is a new Group in Boonah called Common Threads who
meet on the first Tuesday of each month.

New members are always welcome

My Roomy Denim Bag

I came up with this bag design while sitting at soccer one night
waiting for a message on my phone.
I didn't want to be holding my phone waiting for the message,
but couldn't see it when it was in my handbag. So I made external
zippered pockets from mesh. Problem solved.
It also has an internal mesh pocket and is big enough to hold all the sporting essentials - diary, phone, wallet, notebook, novel, pens, lip balm, sunglasses, reading glasses, scarf, light jumper, car keys, camera ...

CLASS - Wednesday June 18

Australian Sewing Guild

As a Group, the Scenic Sewers Beaudesert do some projects for charity.
Recently we made placemats for Meals on Wheels.
Meals sell them for $10 each which pays for 1 meal for someone in need during times of disaster such as the Bundaberg floods.

Margi & Pauline made 17 placemats between them.
They are pictured here with the post-op mastectomy bags made earlier in the year. These are donated to the Gold Coast Hospital as on ongoing project. The Hospital needs 100 of these bags each year.
