Sewing craziness!

I made this cool tote bag. I used a book and followed the directions. This is the second thing I've made with my sewing machine. I am hooked! I only broke two needles on this one, (I broke three one my first project.) I added the applique lolli-pop trees just for the fun of it. I played with that and got better with each tree. Fun Fun!

First Sewing machine project

This is my first ever sewing machine project. I am very proud. After countless calls to my mom about thread breaking followed by three broken needles I finished it. I got the pattern from Amy Butler's book, In Stitches. I got the fabric from JoAnn's. It wasn't nearly as hard to use the machine and I realized how hooked on sewing I could become.
