It's been a while since I made a laminated washbag but guess what, having taught this as a class many, many times, it was just like riding a bike. In fact, I made not one but two matching washbags this weekend.

High Tide - Laminated Washbag Duo
It's been a while since I made a laminated washbag but guess what, having taught this as a class many, many times, it was just like riding a bike. In fact, I made not one but two matching washbags this weekend.

May All Your Wishes Come True - Another Commission
You're forgiven for thinking you've seen this post before - you haven't, honestly!
I'll admit you have seen these
and these though.
And those two posts led to this latest commission below from one of my readers who requested them as a gift for her co-worker who I'm told loved them.
If you're interested in commissioning your own project just send me an email or leave a comment.

Dia de Muertos - A Cosmetic Commission
Remember this Day of the Dead cosmetic bag and tissue cover I made for a charity auction - it was quite a while ago, back in November 2013?
From this blog post I received a commission to create two more sets and here they are.
Same Folk Art fabric by Timeless Treasures but I've used a different colour zip for each bag.
And packaged to go.

Christmas Gifts Now and Then
Last Christmas I made this cosmetic bag and tissue case gift for my therapist, Pam, I loved it so much I made an identical set for myself.
Not normally a lover of yellow but these huge pink and purple flowers and bright green leaves make me very happy every day. The laminate is Garden Party by Philip Jacobs but I've no idea what the pink polka dot lining is, I bought a fat quarter of it years ago at Lexi Loves in Cirencester, England back when I took a lot of classes at New Brewery Arts.
This year I trimmed some towels for Pam, white's always a safe bet and to keep them neutral I've added a design from Lotta Jansdotter's Glimma collection for Windham Fabrics.
I've held off making myself a matching set of the towels but as you can see they'd look great in my bathroom too!!!

The Tula Team - Tissues, Toiletries & Tote
Back in November 2013 I shared this Tula Pink bag with you - you can read all about it here:
I made the tote to give to my son's partner, Ana, for Christmas 2013 and I also made coordinating accessories - a toiletries bag and a tissue cover. If you're a regular reader you might have guessed by now that I never shared the accessories as what follows are more of those photos that have just resurfaced when I recently cleared out one of my cameras.
Fabrics used:
Topiary, Eye Drops and Spencer Stripe from the Parisville collection - all by Tula Pink for Free Spirit.
I love how the lining fabric is visible through the outer tissue cover, those fabrics work so well together.
Have you ever made something, forgotten about it then found a photo a while after?
There're even more photos of other makes on the camera, fun looking back at everything, though!
