I have finally got through all my blog subscriptions on Google reader and have bookmarked about 30 bag tutorials I want to make, I think this may be my favourite thing to make. Bags are usually quite quick and instant, they challenge me but are not so difficult I struggle or get annoyed and you can use them after too! As an added bonus if you wear them out everyone comments on them and are usually amazed you made it yourself, it’s brilliant. So along that line of thought here is a bag I made earlier today from this tutorial over at Petite Purls, I haven’t actually completed it yet though as I don’t have any webbing for the strap, I toyed with the idea of creating a strap from some fabric but decided I wanted it to have the proper webbing strap as it goes with the style of the bag.
A few other little bits and bobs I have made today from random tutorials, unfortunately I have already come off the pages where I got the tutorials from and I don’t even know how I got to them (you know when you link from one thing to another etc) If anyone is particularly interested in any of them, then I will have a look for you but for now take a looky:
1. Fabric Rose
2. Simple Origami Heart
3. Origami Rose
4. Fancy Origami Heart
5. Origami Coat
I feel really good for doing all these things today and will hopefully stay quite motivated even though I am starting my new job tomorrow (eeek!) Although I am a little bit worried that for the first month I’m going to be so worn out from working all day as I’m not used to it! We shall see, for now So long and happy crafting:)

Thanks:) I’ve been blogging on and off for a while now but this is the one I’ve kept up with the most as crafting is a passion of mine.
