#sewback2school #backtoschooltour
Check out the rest of today's stops on the tour:
What I made: My kindergartener has everything he needs for now, but I have started doing some preschool with my middle monkey. I decided to make something to carry her workbooks and coloring books in. She loves it, stole it from my hands as soon as I finished sewing the last seems (which means there are still a few threads to trim)!
It holds a couple coloring books and her favorite fat markers. Made like this one I did 4 years ago for my niece. only I realized I forgot the tab to keep it closed.
It folds like a book, and even though the markers are towards the center, they don't fall out!
My middle one loves the handles and so far it has accompanied her to school drop off all week!
The outer is recycled denim from husband's jeans and the inner/handles are quilting cotton. I did not use interfacing or a stabilizer. I measured a coloring book and hoped that a color wonder book would fit (she had gotten one for her birthday, but it needs to be a tad bit longer for the color wonder book!
Don't you just love my 3 year old's coloring skills?
