Friday Sew-n-Tell

"Get it Together Tuesday" of this week was changed into "You got Monday off from school so we'll make Tuesday into Monday, thus leaving you confused and out of sorts for the rest of the week". Which is how I feel. Due to my confusion it is a good thing that the Sew-N-Tell was postponed last week, this way I can use my project from last week for this week. Don't worry, Amy informed me that this is not cheating. Anyways, enough excuses here's my project:
It's a small pouch that I made for a classmate Kim, who needed something to put her tape-recorder thingy for clinic in. And she paid me $10 for it. My first paying job. Kim wanted something to protect her recorder thingy so I quilted it, and she told me I could do whatever I wanted to so I let the artistic ideas flow and ended up with an apliqued flower and some nice little leaves and a button for the center of the flower. I kind of winged the whole process, and then 30 minutes after finishing it I found this nice tutorial about how to make basically the same thing, in case you like it. The only differences are that Kim's has quilt batting in it, and the quilt batting is quilted, and also there is an applique on hers.It was rather difficult to part with, but it has a good home.

On another note this was what I found when I woke up this morning.
How sweet. I love you too Charlie.
I can't wait to see what else people have for the Sew-N-Tell.
Hope everyone has a good weekend.
Lauren
