Reversible Shoulder Bag - En Espanol!

,
I have some good news for any spanish readers out there who would like to make my Reversible Shoulder Bag pattern. Celes from Tejidos de Celes has posted spanish language instructions on her blog for the pattern (click here to view her post). I am thrilled that Celes has shared her skills with everyone! She has made a lovely pdf of the translated instructions for you to download. Despite a year of college spanish, my spanish skills are pretty poor but the translated instructions appear clearly organized and easy to follow. Thank you Celes!

Inspired by Celes, I've started making another shoulder bag myself. I cut out the fabric months ago and now I'm embroidering birds on it (before stitching it together). The embroidery pattern is from the book Sublime Stitching by Jenny Hart. Check out SublimeStitching.com for patterns and supplies. I love the vintage, not cheesy look of the designs.

I have a lot more sewing projects to share and I hope I get around to it soon!
