A cute little boy and a bag

Today was a big day.  We discovered C's love of Playdough.  We no longer have yellow and orange playdough, we have yellow-orange in 2 containers (the only colors I let him play with).  We got out cookie cutters, a little roller, and a knife.  He loved it!  I need to get some pics tomorrow. 

I finally finished a bag I'd been making for him.  It didn't turn out reversable like I planned. I followed a tutorial for a lined bag, but not a reversible bag, so I missed the mark.  I should have made my interior reversed of what I did.  I also made my gussets too big, so I plan to rip it apart (just a little bit and fix it.  The gussets were much easier than I expected.  I'd been putting off finishing it b/c I wasn't sure I could follow the instructions.  The reversible side is army green with READ in big letters I cut out of the dino print.  I think I might need to make the straps a bit shorter.  I tried to make the bag smaller than the tutorial (since it was adult size, but I should have reduced a bit more. 

Trying on his bag.  It's definitley too big!




This has been up a long time, but I can't remember if I ever took a pic of the final product

Finally got the bat hung.  I had to use some awkward hangers to get it done.  Need to figure out how to balance out the hangers.
