Spice Cake Fabric bag

I've been sewing again, this time I used the spice cake fabric which I love, think I may have to buy some more before the end of the mini catalogue! It's the same as the flirtatious bag I made using the scallop square die but this time I made it 4 x 4 squares and left off the ruffle, I used the wide grosgrain ribbon for the handle and fastener and the giant buttons. As the bag was bigger I used a co-ordinating fabric for the lining.  I love this bag and am using it every day and have received lots of positive feedback, next time I will have to make an internal pocket as well though.

Amazing Spice Cake Display

I thought I'd share with you some of the wonderful things I saw at training.  The lovely Sally-Jo had an amazing inspiration station with lots of things she designed and made with the spiced cake fabric dsp and spiced paisley stamp set.  Here are some photo's, if you'd like to see more and watch a tutorial on how to make those gorgeous flowers on the wreath visit Sally-Jo's blog here.
