Finished:
Modern Crosses Wall Hanging
Done! And proudly hanging on my wall.
Vera bag #2
Luke's preschool teacher from last year asked me to make her a bag like mine. No problem. (Vera pattern from Green Bee Patterns. Fabric here.) I used the interfacing recommended in the pattern this time (the first time I couldn't remember what it was when I went to the fabric store). The recommended interfacing (Decor Bond?) worked out better (weird!) and gives the bag a little extra heft. I would've switched them out, but mine is too dirty to pass for new! Oh, and that would be wrong.
Ongoing projects:
For the Love of Solids Swap
I finished my small item. It's a notebook cover (tutorial here). Rachel from Stitched in Color has been cranking out journal covers, so I decided to give them a try too. My large item is well underway. I'm a little nervous about it, but I think my partner will be happy if I can pull it off.
Garden Fence Quilt
I'm going to use my DS Quilts fabric to make a Garden Fence quilt. I haven't started cutting yet, but I pulled all the fabric today, so I'm counting it as in progress! This is going to be a Christmas gift.

Seriously still loving your Vera bags! I really want that fabric!! That patchwork notebook cover is cute too. Thanks for linking up to WIP Wednesday. : )
LOVE the modern crosses!! LOVE!
Decor Bond is my absolute favorite & pretty much the only interfacing I use for bags, no matter what the pattern calls for. It gives just the right amount of shape without being too stiff.
I'm so in love with those bags! Fun journal cover, too. Can't wait to see what your big project is!
