Project Bags don't count as stash!!! It's officially the Easter Holidays so I will be slowing down a bit. The shop is still open though and I will be doing post office runs a couple of times a week!! The kids don't mind - the post office is conveniently right next to a playground 👍🏻 . . . #purlsandjewels #knittingaccessories #projectbags #projectbag #knittingbag #handmadebag #knittingnotions #knitting #crochet #knittingaddict #knittinginspiration #makersmovement #knittersofinstagram #igknitters #crochetaddict #iloveknitting #nevernotknitting #knitlife #knittinginspiration #knittingtherapy #instaknitters #neverenoughprojectbags #shopsmall #prettycreativelife #ourmakerlife #makeallthethings https://www.instagram.com/purlsandjewels/p/BwRYVaPJjYK/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=nqy6w1eqp30s

We had a much needed girls day out to see the Mary Quant exhibition at the V&A today! It's well worth a visit! More pics in my stories!! The universe has thrown everything at me this week so it was nice to have a day out to look forward to!! . . . #vanda #victoriaandalbert #maryquant #girlsdayout #wewearwhatwewant #vintagemaryquant #wewantmaryquant #indiemakerlife #ourmakerlife #fashioninspiration #vintagefashion #fashionexhibition #londonmusuems #60sfashion (at Victoria and Albert Museum) https://www.instagram.com/purlsandjewels/p/BwPVHLWJAIK/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=19l3a6k4s1q35

This is what happens when you get bored of cutting out the same shape project bag all day 😂 My creative mind does not do well with repetitive tasks. I present to you... the segment bag. Actually if you swipe to the second pic, it works very well as a project bag. It can fit lots of yarn inside AND you are using a pair of straight needles (shock horror) they will fit in the bag. Which is not the case with most project bags these days! I will experiment a bit more with this shape tomorrow and add some of these to the shop!!

I'm absolutely loving the addition of batik fabrics to all the bags I'm making at the moment!! Batik fabrics just say summer to me. I think I need to make some more batik clothes to add to my wardrobe too!!

Monday vibes. Just about to cut out this fabric for some new Kinchaku project bags. Kinda wishing I was a sloth tbh. Going to try and get as many bags online this week before taking a break with the kids for the Easter holidays!! Ps. Don't really wish I was a sloth. Sewing is much more fun. . . . #purlsandjewels #knittingaccessories #projectbags #projectbag #knittingbag #handmadebag #knittingnotions #knitting #crochet #knittingaddict #knittinginspiration #makersmovement #indiemaker #ourmakerlife #makeallthethings #handmade #shophandmade #bagmaker #sewistsofinstagram #sewing #fabric #slothlife #makeallthethings #neverenoughprojectbags https://www.instagram.com/purlsandjewels/p/Bv_lQZWFNfi/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=465zyjdika3l

This is definitely one of my favourite project bags ever! It's very tempting to keep it for myself but I really don't need anymore project bags! There is only one available so let's see who gets in there first!!!

I've added all the new bags I have made so far this week to the shop! Go and have a look and see what you think! I've been experimenting with a slightly new style! My elephant stitch markers would go perfectly with this one! Just search 'elephant' in the search bar on the website!

What to call this one? Dorothy could've got home quicker on the tube? Or Follow the circle line? 😂😂😂 #itsalondonthing I'll be adding a few new bags later on. I've been having fun putting fabrics together. I hope you will like them!! . . . #purlsandjewels #knittingaccessories #projectbags #projectbag #knittingbag #handmadebag #knittingnotions #knitting #crochet #knittingaddict #knittinginspiration #knitstagram #iloveknitting #knitlife #knitspiration #crochetaddict #instaknitters #neverenoughprojectbags #sewing #sewistsofinstagram #handmadeisbetter #shopsmall #prettycreativelife #ourmakerlife #wizardofoz #overtherainbow https://www.instagram.com/purlsandjewels/p/Bvy7Z-TFPDV/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=kgqwpkpe21mt

I did a bit of experimenting today. What do you think of this project bag?? Should I make some more like these for the shop?? . . . #purlsandjewels #knittingaccessories #stitchmarkers #projectbag #knittingbag #handmadebag #projectbagmaker #knitting #knittersofinstagram #knitstagram #iloveknitting #knittingaddict #knittinginspiration #sewistsofinstagram #craftspiration #knitspiration #ourmakerlife #prettycreativelife #crochet #crochetaddict #instaknitters #iloveknitting #nevernotknitting #knitlife https://www.instagram.com/purlsandjewels/p/BvuLh3JFWRb/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=yxbn5xjs0aqi

I will be updating the shop with some new project bags on Wednesday and Thursday. In the meantime if you see one you really need in your life please feel free to DM me! These are the bookshelf bags I made today! . . . #purlsandjewels #knittingaccessories #projectbags #projectbag #knittingbag #handmadebag #knittingnotions #knitting #crochet #knittingaddict #knittinginspiration #makersmovement #projectbagmaker #indiemaker #sewallthethings #sewistsofinstagram #handmadeisbetter #knittersofinstagram #knitstagram #iloveknitting #knittingismyyoga #instaknitters #instamakers #etsyshop #prettycreativelife #ourmakerlife https://www.instagram.com/purlsandjewels/p/BvuLLfuF-Qe/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1u2gd9o8tpw4a

Most of my Kinchaku Project Bags are now out of stock. Boooo! but there are still a few available - including this one! I've been feeling a bit off kilter this week. Which is always good for my knitting, but not very good for sewing! So I've been knitting away on my shawl. I hope to have some new bags made to top up the shop next week! 😁 . . . #purlsandjewels #knittingaccessories #projectbags #projectbag #knittingbag #handmadebag #knittingnotions #knitting #crochet #knittingaddict #knittinginspiration #makersmovement #kinchakubag #igknitters #knitstagram #iloveknitting #knitlife #knitspiration #crochetaddict #instaknitters #neverenoughprojectbags #sewing #sewistsofinstagram #handmadeisbetter #shopsmall #prettycreativelife #ourmakerlife #makeallthethings https://www.instagram.com/purlsandjewels/p/BvjLzTmlCp5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=tu7b8r3xcrmp

My biggest baby is off school sick and I'm feeling a bit peaky myself. So we're having an unplanned day of watching films (and I'm knitting). All outstanding orders will be posted tomorrow, I'm sure you understand! There also won't be a bag update this week. Tuesday is usually my big sewing day. I'm embracing the unexpected and enjoying the snuggles!

I cast on a new shawl last night. I absolutely do not need a new shawl - but #rainbowrelayshawl has been on my to do list for a while and I really need it! I also need another project to work on like a hole in the head, but I'm finding the plain garter stitch very soothing. I'm going to sit and knit a little right now in fact. I have a pattern cutting induced headache (I am attempting to make some tartan trousers) and I'm hoping this will relax me! Yarn from @gamercrafting Stitch Marker made by me!

A sneaky peek at what's going on at my sewing table this week! Expect an eclectic selection of new bags this Thursday. Can you spot the bookshelf fabric? That's one I'm very excited about!! . . . #purlsandjewels #knittingaccessories #projectbags #projectbag #knittingbag #handmadebag #knittingnotions #knitting #crochet #knittingaddict #knittinginspiration #makersmovement #indiemaker #ourmakerlife #makeallthethings #knitstagram #iloveknitting #knitlife #knitspiration #crochetaddict #instaknitters #neverenoughprojectbags #sewing #sewistsofinstagram #handmadeisbetter https://www.instagram.com/purlsandjewels/p/BvMP6SqlNlC/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1xcczuwp1x6h9
