As predicted, the deadline of my friend's birthday has seen me finish the new
tote first in my MoF (Month of Finishing).
I've made the straps longer this time so that it can be worn across
the body as well as on the shoulder. It's also a bit longer than my
last effort to suit the line of the longer straps.
Another first (for me) is attaching the magnetic clasp. I followed Nikki's most
excellent tutorial on You Sew Girl, but I think I need a bit more practice at
getting it to sit flat and firm against the fabric... Can you see how it's pulling
away slightly in the top photo? I should have used a hammer ;)
And once again I've gone for the boxed corners... because I like them :)
So, that's one item ticked in my Month of Finishing. Thanks for all your lovely
supportive comments on my last post. It's good to know I'm not the only one :)
Have a great weekend!
