In March my FIS group had a "Leanne Beasley" swap. The challenge was for ladies to make their swap partners something that Leanne had designed. Below is the parcel that arrived for me from Teresa.

And this is the lovely bag that Teresa made. The design is called "Jackie's Sewing Bag" from Leanne's book, "Living the Dream." Thank you Teresa, your bag is proving to be very useful. You can get so many crafty things in it at once, and I have already used it as an overnight bag!
Sarah's swap gift from me was this bag below. Many of the FIS ladies are in love with Rouenneries fabric so I decided it was a good fabric to use for Sarah. To make the bag I used 2 of Leanne's patterns. The panel/stitchery design comes from the centre block of Leanne's quilt pattern "Butterfly Garden" and I made the overall bag from Leanne's pattern called "The Waverly Bag."
I loved this bag so much I ended up making 2. I just had to have one for myself.!!
