February participants in JemJam's Style Stitches Challenge were asked to create the second bag in the book, called the Everyday Shopper. I used a great brown and white polka dot print and made the pocket out of a embroidered Oklahoma tea towel on it from Cat Studios. I love their products and I am happy with how my bag turned out incorporating the towel as the pocket of the bag.
This bag was quick and simple to put together. Definitely a beginner project. Use this bag to replace your shopping bag at the store or flea market. I always make a new bag to carry my goodies I purchase at Farm Chicks each year and I can't decide whether to use last months Cosmo Bag or this months Everyday Shopper.
When we moved to Oklahoma this past summer, I told my husband on the condition I can go to Spokane each year and go to the Farm Chicks Show. So I was excited when I opened up my new issue of Fleamarket Style yesterday to see a large ad for the show coming up in June. If you have never attended it is a must see show and worth the drive or flight to Washington.
