Friday Finish: Sew Together Bag for a special friend

A while back, I was having a rough day. Not a tornado-touched-down kind of day. Or really bad news. Just a downer. Messy house. Messier kids. Hot outside.

And then I got the mail. There was a package for me! There's hardly ever fun mail for me anymore.

Inside was this:


A pants bag! I have arrived! You know you are a special person when Jennifer, a.k.a. Glinda, makes you a pants bag for your unmentionables while you travel. And in my two favorite colors!

I have to confess, the conversation with my husband about "What exactly is a pants bag?" was quite hilarious. His mother is British, so I finally said, "It's a British thing." And that worked!

Well, I was already planning on making something special in return, so I got busy on it. And it was so much fun to individualize it with sparkly things.



I had to steal the pictures from her blog because, silly me, I forgot to photograph it before I packed it up!

It's a Sew Together Bag, lined with pink (of course) and then the cutest tea print inside the zippy pockets. And a silver wand on the outside, because Glinda is a good witch with a silver wand.

And checking this little pretty off my 3QFAL list
