hands you a basket of luck for the bag :D Speaking of bags, I need to redo the piping on my London bag at some point - I didn't cut the binding accurately enough and some of the stitches have come out, so you can see through to the wrong side of the fabric in places on the edges 😊

hehe well if it goes as well as the cat did, I'm positive you'll get it looking amazing! :D

Well, it'll either be a quick bit of hand sewing just to tack it down, or pull the piping off, and use some bought binding to redo it completely.... which would be er slightly more work laughs

hands you a blanket Have a good snooze ;)

The kitty is so adorable! :D

Well, Salem tend to lose patience with it fast.. but Pusur is not one to give up. Even if Salem starts fighting him off. It does not deter him for doing it again and again. lol

Pretty much. xD I have always had fun imagining what my pets would sound like. What kinda voice they would have- and different phrases that they would use all the time. 👼

I hope so. :) I will probly iron the fabrics after my afternoon nap. Woke with a splitting headache so i know I will require a nap. But if it calms down, I might get mum to help me make sure my measurements are even and label everything. Then I could actually start Tuesday or so. Can you pull it off without having to redo everything? that does sound like a nightmare. thank you :D I had fun making it lol.

hehe and I bet Pusur would be sound really hyper & enthusiastic about everything? ;)

Awww at the headache :( Hopefully that'll disappear squishes I never label any of the pieces I cut out.... then spend ages trying to figure out what bit goes where 😊 :P

Hopefully - I think the binding is a bit narrow in places, so it might not work, but if not I can always make a second bag - I've got just about enough fabric left over from this one ;)

I wouldn't bother normally myself lol. expect she goes by the numbers anyway so figured it'd be easier for me to follow LOL if you can fix without having to make another bag, that'd be the best lol cos then you can use the fabric for something else :D

Yeah, you don't want to get in a complete mess when you're sewing it together ;)

nods eventually I'll probably make another bag (but with the zip done differently), as I'm using this one a lot and I could probably do with a spare in the same style laughs But I'm hopeful that I can get the piping sorted out.... and make sure that next time I use precut binding rather than cutting my own! :P

exactly. Plus, I have enough that I can make two so thinking of cutting it out for two and making it so they each line the inside of the other bag if that makes sense. was making your own difficult?

ooo now that sounds a good plan! :D

nods never try to make your own bias binding laughs Cutting it accurately was almost impossible, so it's a lot easier to just buy a strip of it :P

oooo now that's definitely a good idea! Kind of a knitting needle roll (I made a crochet hook roll as my first project on Mum's machine)?

Folding it wasn't a problem (that was the easy bit, even without a bias folding gadget), but cutting it was the nightmare ;)

a helpful hint - make sure the roll has a top to it.... my crochet hooks keep sliding out of mine when I pick it up upside-down by accident 😊 ;)
