Nearly Finished

The bag is coming along very nicely. I'm very pleased with the way it has gone together bearing in mind that I didn't have a pattern.

This is the tube assembled and the base attached. The twists work very well.


This is a shot with the lining pinned into place and ready to be sewn.


So is this.


And now with the lining sewn in and turned out.






Here I have pinned the top cuff on. This was used to make the channels for the drawstrings.




I am now making the beaded balls that go on the ends of the drawstrings.
Tomorrow is the first meeting of our new group, the off-shoot from City and Guilds. We haven't got a name yet, probably the first thing we will do is to choose one. I'm looking forward to it. I'm sure there will be lots of catching up to do.

Looks good Angela! Do you need me to bring along C & G paperwork... wondered if there is any signing off to be done?
