FABRICADABRA is my Sewing Blog, with other bits of interest sprinkled in for fun. I love fabric and creating things from it. FOLLOWING MRS. SUNDBERG is learning what it means to make something for the joy of making it. She's a down-home, comfort-focused, smack dab in the heartland kind of woman, who has a gift for writing, cooking, and generally pointing out the small wonders of every day. THE RUBY THROAT DIARIES documents my passion for these little birds. ©Please respect that everything shared here, including my photos holds personal value and is copyright protected by me, the photographer and writer.

Clothesline Tote Update



Zigzag stitching the bag together was a LOT easier than covering the clothesline. It was like putting a coat on a worm. I really think if I attempt another one, it will be a thicker clothesline. This one had a tendency to roll a bit and it took a lot longer than I thought it would. I consider myself a good sewer and this challenged me.
I need more clothesline and more fabric. I assembled this from photos online, and didn't have exact measurements. It needs to be taller. I have plenty of fabric though, so after another trip to the hardware store for line, I will be able to add enough strips to make it the size I want. I figure it will be a good tote for the grocery, or when I have my camera and other things that I want to take along.
