I did my last craft today. Well, not my last ever, but the 30 Days of April Craft Challenge of Death is over. The amazing thing is, I still had an idea for a project I never got around to making and I just bought fabric this week--some today, in fact--for multiple projects. I had a major fight with my sewing machine on Monday. I had to manhandle the thing to finish this bag. I had planned on a cute ric-rac accent, but when I had to sew the handles on by hand, I decided a plain, ric-rac-less bag was good enough for me. I was surprised the machine worked so well today, when I made this pillow (the small, black one):



I even used my fancy zipper/piping pressure foot (something that was way more exciting to me than it should've been). I can't account for what made the difference. I'm just happy it worked.
