Cute & Simple Kids Library Bag

One of my grand daughters needed a piano bag,

and I was happy to make her one :)

Her favorite colors are teal and purple and pink.

I found this beautiful April Rosenthal fabric at one of my favorite quilt shops, Bolts & More in Gilbert, Arizona.

I found a great tutorial at Polkadot Chair.

I added a 2" boxed bottom though, to hold more books.

The inside of the bag is teal, and has 8 values.

Faith, Divine Nature, Individual Worth, Knowledge, 

Choice and Accountability, Good Works, Integrity and Virtue.

Isabel wanted to model the bag, so here she is!

Vintage Block Along, Shade Tree

This is my Shade Tree block from Lori Holt's Vintage Block Along.

I had a lot of fun choosing the colors.

We could sure use some big, beautiful shade trees 

like this in Arizona!

You can see the tutorial on Lori's blog here.
