I partook in a similar blog hop a couple of years ago - but I prefer this new range, as it's a little bit brighter and more cheery! That would follow, as this is a Spring release and that was an Autumn release - and Spring colours are more me!
This is the selection I was sent...
I decided to make a couple of cute little drawstring bags, and used a bit of all the fabric except for the purple and green one at the bottom. I think I needed other fabrics from the range to coordinate well with that one.
The pattern I used was from A Spoonful of Sugar but without the lace motifs.
I love the pompom trim I used on the red one!
The lining is the second to bottom fabric in my top picture, which is so pretty - I need to make another project which shows it off more!
The blues are pretty too... the bottom fabric is so gorgeously whimsical...
I lined it with one of the fabrics I used for the outer of the red bag, positioned vertically rather than horizontally...
I think I'm going to use them to hold gifts - it would be lovely to receive a piece of jewellery presented in a pretty bag like this!
