Last time I blogged (I'm sorry it took me two weeks to blog again but I've been very occupied with school)I wrote about finding my mom's old favorite vest and I wanted to suprise her with a bag.
Today I finished the bags.

Yes I managed to get three bags out of the vest and fabrics! So now I'm going to suprise my mom ánd my sister with a bag.

I do, however, have one bag left. And if there is someone who would like it? I'm willing to sell it! It's the bag on the next picture, the bag in the middle of the three bags. You can mail me.

The next weeks I'll be occupied with the Dutch Sinterklaas and our school art project about Africa. But I'm going to try to blog as often as I can!

I am a bag addict, so I am nog going to buy yours beause I already have too many!!
What a nice idea to use knitted sweaters for this.
However, do you sell the pattern? If so I woulld be interested.
Oh my gosh the bags are beautiful! I would be interested in the pattern too.

The bags all turned out so cute. I know your sister is thrilled with hers. I love it when something new can be made from something else. You are a talented lady.
What a kind and talented sister and daughter you are. The bags are lovely.
I waaaaaaaaant the pattern!!!! I waaaaaaaaant a bag!!!! You have just created something that would sell for a high price in a high end store. These are BEAUTIFUL! They have a folk art flair.

Thanks for the birthday wishes!!!
Those bags are just lovely! What a great way to reuse a lovely vest/sweater and to have a great memory!
Oh my, oh my, I am star struck by your bags and crafty things, so clever! Thank you for adding me to your blog! I must do the same. Very nice to meet you Heleen. Regards
Very lovely bags - I really like the combination of fabrics and especially that you used your Mum's favourite shirt.
Wow - the bags are fantastic - I am overwhelmed at how creative alot of people are - very, very talented.
I remember Sinterklaas - we used to celebrate it when I was young, but we have lived away from Holland for 36 years now, and we don't often celebrate anymore. I do however, put my tree up on this day.
Cheers
