I made this bag for the mom of the kids I made the two circle cases for in the previous post.

We became good friends when I moved back home to San Diego. Her kids went to the same school as mine and it turns out we went to the same high school just different years and we even lived down the street from each other then. Moving so much makes it so I meet some really awesome people but it also means I move after meeting them. The last three places we were stationed were 1.5 years each. (insert sad face emogi)

I thought this pattern was good but it was better when I did the sew along. Now when I make this I just pull up the sew along and make it.

Double Gauze Hippo Top

Another Simplicity 2193 Double Gauze Top. Here is the 1st one. They both are getting lots of wear here in wonderful weather California:) If you've not felt Double Gauze before let me tell you, it's lovely. Super lightweight and soft. It's two pieces of gauze sewn together or something like that. Perfect for summer. I again lined only the bodice in batiste and no interfacing. It makes it perfectly stable. The hippo fabric is by Kokka.

This is the 1st thing I sewed the minute I could get in my sewing room and sew!
