Earlier this year, I started taking strength training lessons twice a week at my local fitness center. This has been the best gift to myself ever! Although I might complain a bit (ok, a lot) during the sessions, they have been very beneficial. I know I am getting stronger!
Sarah is a big time Harry Potter fan so I wanted to make her a bag for Christmas. The crest was from Fandom of Stitches and was a relatively quick FPP. The bag is Noodlehead wide open pouch in the medium size. (I boxed the corners at 2.25" but would likely go for 1.75" or maybe 2" the next time.)
She really liked the bag!
I've got a few more homemade items to share but they will have to wait until gifted!
Good for you to be strength training! It's so good for you, and it makes you feel like you've accomplished something worthwhile. You have! That zipper pouch is very cute, perfect for a girl who loves Harry Potter. Good tip about the boxed bottom size. One never knows for sure what's best until a use has been determined for the pouch. Know what you mean about gift-sharing! I have loads to share, but the last person - who also reads my blog! - won't get her gift until January 6! I have to wait much too long!
