Tools,
Half Square Triangle
Stencil.
I love to shop in fact my mother in law and my kid say I can
open my own fabric store. I like to think I am part dragon therefore I must
have a horde.
In to my horde came my birthday gift to my self some very so
very nice fabric from Sunday best. Also
in my hands came the half square triangle stencils. In a challenge to this must
have item I sat on my floor holding to my chest and growling when my kid came
to close. I have found the perfect pattern.
It is a bag, to feed my bag fetish, because every woman needs a new bag
for her birthday.
Why this challenge you say well those wickedly crafty girls
at Sunday best dropped this idea in my ear and there is nothing like a
challenge to make a Gemini go mad.

I was told I can up size without measuring any half square
pattern by just changing the size of my stencil and if I sew carefully and
follow the directions they will come out perfectly every time. I will look like
a genius.
So with this thought in mind I will sew 4 exact bags in
small, medium, large and dragon size. I will use the same pattern only upsizing
my stencil.
Perfect half square triangles; my mother in law hates
triangles…..we are working this challenge together! I hope to drop a note on
how the challenge went and our review..
ooh yeah pictures!
