An Apple A Day


        











 

  


All RBOGs have completed the apple project!  Yay!  This project was fun!  It seems even more fun, now that it is finished. :)

This little apple now hangs in my kitchen to remind me to eat my apple a day!

Cheers to good health!

GOMEN KUDASAI



I'm sorry that it took me so long to post my bag.  I needed to post this before the next project set makes its debut.  Thank you Reva for giving us so much guidance.

BACKPACK PROJECT PROTOTYPE


Finished! Finally! There were some mistakes on the cutting information on the pattern--which I discovered after cutting the lining. Fortunately, we have lots of lining fabric. I did note a couple of other things on the pattern that weren't exactly clear but it worked out. (There is a tiny line on the pattern that says to check the website in case there are mistakes on the pattern......of course, I checked it...after the fact.) I put two pockets in the lining--why not? The most nerve wracking part, for me, was putting the grommets in for the straps. You have to mark and cut the hole to fit the grommet and it was not fun. I was afraid I was going to mess up the final step after all that work but--yippee--it worked.

DISCHARGE FABRIC JACKET


Front and back views of the Vogue Pattern jacket by Marci Tilton made with some of the fabric that we discharged on that fun day at the Southern California Art Lab. That was another fun day--we may decide to do more discharging one day! RBOG's are always looking for new things to do with fabrics!

APPLE PROJECT

This is the finished apple! It was a challenge and took more patience and time than I expected but I like it!
