The one without the patchwork bag

No patchwork bag to show today. Last night Isaiah decided that 9pm would be his bed time, so I didn't get any crafting in. I did, however, manage to whip this little pouch up this afternoon.

I wanted to try Ginny's tutorial for zippers and let me tell you, it's fabulous. So now all of you go run over there and try it if you haven't already.


I also got around to finally taking pictures for my etsy shop. My mother-in-law had picked up all my bags that were at a post office/ gift shop a few months ago. The owner had sold a few, but he was trying to make some money too ( I don't blame him), and had priced them very high. He also had them in an odd place. Plus, I have a suspicion that he has a very regular customer base, so after a while, no one was buying. Anyway, so I now have a few bags that I am happy to have back. That means I have stock for my etsy store without even trying! ha! Hopefully I'll get around to updating my shop tonight. It really is time consuming, and after writing up all that eBay stuff, I sure do need a break!

I may have to try that I have scads of zippers and an even bigger fear of the buggers. Trying an innocent little pouch couldn't be too bad could it?

Eventually I'm going to look into placing some of my creatures in store. I was interested to hear about your experience since I've no idea what to expect. Your new pouch is groovy!
