Library Book Bag.
My little Kindergartner was super excited to get her library card the other day.
She was concerned she would loose her new library card, and she wanted to make sure she had somewhere safe to keep her borrowed books. (A real concern with 3 little siblings, and a house full of books) So I made her a special library book bag.
I made it out of a pair of old jeans. Actually 3/4 of a pair of old jeans, I used 1/2 of a leg for a different project. It’s a simple messenger bag with a few special touches. The front has a great decoration I embroidered on to a piece of felt, using a pattern from Urban Threads. I just zigzagged around the edge to keep it in place.
On the inside, there is a pocket for the library card. I cut a pocket off of the butt of the pants, and sewed it into place. We were nervouse the card might fall out and get lost, so we put as little hole punch in the card, and tied it on with a ribbon.
It has lots of room for all her special library books, and she loves it very much. She has already taken it to school for show and tell.
A awesome example of Cross Stitch creation. This one is really a great thinking for that type of creation.I really like it.
thanks. it’s not cross stitch though. it’s machine embroidered. but I supposed you could do a cross stitch one. :)
