The first Sew News issue of 2014 is now available! And it is full of great information, wonderful tips, and
and my little article!!!! I'm so excited!!! I just realized that this bag does double duty for
Jungle January!!
I made this bag months ago and now I have it back in my hands and I can finally enjoy using it.
Just to give you an idea of the size, I've included a picture of the bag over my shoulder. You can see that it's large, but not too large.
Inside are an abundance of pockets for anyone who is always on the go. There's room for everything from diapers and a bottle, to your flip flops for that impromptu pedicure and there's even a special pocket for your cell phone! Even with all these items, you can still find room for all the other necessities that are a must in everyone's bag.
If you would like to make the bag and sew along with me, starting next week, the week of February 3, 2014, there will be a new video up each week to help walk you through the process of making your own bag. A special Flickr group has been set up, you can find it here,
http://www.flickr.com/groups/sn_sewalong1. Join and post your pictures. I can't wait to see your creative fabric choices! You can find the Sew News newsletter
here and the blog post
here where you can get information on the sew along and how to join the Flickr group.
Now, I've saved a little treat for last, I have an extra copy of the current Sew News Magazine
and I would love to share it. So, leave a message on this post if you would like a chance to win. I will announce the winner this upcoming Friday, January 31st.
I was intending to pick this issue up as soon as I found one, but I'll throw my name in for a chance to win. I'm going to try to sew along.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations you are such a bright star in the sewing community.
ReplyDeleteI would be happy to win your extra copy since it is hard to find Sew News in the stores. I also plan to sew along to make this bag.
ReplyDeleteI would love to win this magazine, thanks for the giveway!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Rhonda!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to win a copy of this magazine - I don't think it's available here in the UK!
Congratulations Rhonda - your bag is super, with all the pockets inside. I would loved a copy of this magazine but am reluctant to suggest my name for a chance to win, as I live in Australia - not fair to you to pay postage to overseas destinations. I'm glad you are getting "known" - you have worked hard for your opportunities.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sarah. Your name will go into the drawing. I so appreciate everyone who takes the time to stop by my blog, so this is just my way of giving a little something back :)
DeleteI would be in bag heaven if I won this magazine. Thanks for giving it away!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on being in the magazine! what fun to have something you have made in a magazine,thanks for the change to win a copy, happy sewing
ReplyDeleteThat looks so neat. I'm going to pick up my copy ASAP!
ReplyDeleteOf course I would like to win that magazine! No bookstores where I live.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Joy
Already got my copy in the mail but I have plenty of sewing friends I could gift one to. :)
ReplyDeleteWould love to receive a free copy of Sew News but if I don't win (boo hoo) will definitely pick one up. Want that bag!
ReplyDeleteWho doesn't like to win something? Not me! I will pick up this copy if I don't win (boohoo) since the bag does look very handy. Planning on sewing along...Thanks!
ReplyDeleteCount me in! So glad to see you getting all these great opportunities!
ReplyDeleteThat is a VERY nice bag. I love all the pockets on the inside. Congrats on your feature too!!
ReplyDeleteI am planning planning to make this bag so I would be delighted to win. Thanks for the giveaway!

ReplyDeleteI don't think I have seen this magazine in Australia so would love the chance to win a copy!
