Its my friends birthday soon.
When it was my birthday she sent the most amazing surprise gift of a handmade apron that she had made out of a vintage sheet.
I wanted to make her a special birthday gift too. I really hope she likes her cute new bag.
Perhaps not the most practical sized bag for a mum to two little boys, but practical smactical, that's what I say!!!
It was made using this tutorial.
Challenge 14- Make at least 1 Christmas or Birthday present for a friend or family member- COMPLETE (I fully intend to make more presents for friends and family. I was being cautious when I wrote this challenge! The next couple of gifts for friends are already in the pipeline!)
