Make & Listen Along: A little bag

 Make & Listen Along

~ On Thursdays I will post what I have been making and listening to as creations grow. 

If so inclined post, on your blog or flickr, about what you have been making (on your own or with little hands by your side) and listening to while you create. It can be new music, flash backs, a song or a whole album... whatever you like. You can be stitching with needle & thread, yarn, paper crafting, painting, cooking... and beyond. Share what you are making and the tunes that are fueling your creativity. Then come back to my Thursday Make & Listen Along post and leave a link in the comments so we can be inspired right along with you! ~

It had been awhile since the sewing machine had peeked out from under its cover and it was crying out to be seen. I have a few projects rolling round in this brain of mine, it can be a scary place in there, and they want to get out too! 

I finally had a moment to sit down at the machine this week. 

Here is what I knew when I sat down: 

I needed a bag for a little something I have going with the kiddos. 

I needed some low-brainer sewing. 

I needed no pattern to follow, because that is not low-brainer!

  

So, this quirky but cute little bag was born. It may be little but it has big plans in its future. I will share more about how I made it, what it's occupation will be, and a little giveaway next week.

There have also been GF graham crackers made, water color painting flying onto the page, and a whole lot of ball games being made up in the backyard. 

Along with all of the usuals and the rumbling of thunder from our awesome afternoon thundershowers, The Civil Wars were added to the mix this week (thanks to Danielle's recommendation) and I really like their sound. 

What have you been making?

What is on your play list?

Please do share.
