#its lowkey a b!tch to sew

[ghostweaver]

Oh my god guys I'm so embarrassed I completely spaced on actually showing what I did with that first band.

I made a little bag!

Sorry for the funky pictures, it's hard to position the bag one-handed. But yeah!

I wish I got more pictures of the process (because trust me, it was quite the process. So many safety pins...) but basically what I did was sew the edges of the band in a spiral, almost, starting from the middle (which would make the bottom of the bag) and work my way to the ends (which is where the D-rings for the handles connect). The way I sewed it was completely by hand, and was meant to make the seam almost invisible, at least on concept. I need a lot more practice, though.

That second band with the same pattern is going to be the strap, I just need to get the right size connectors before I can sew them :)

It occurred to me that I haven't posted here in a hot minute- Academics sure do get in the way of that. I'm still working on projects though! I finished the band I was working on previously:

Then I decided to do something new with it, but that will be coming soon once I get it to a good place that doesn't look like I'm just tacking it together for the sake of it. I can't wait to show it off!

And then, of course, I put something new on the loom.

(Yeah, its the same pattern, and it's just as messy to keep the tension.)

We're doing our best, And that's what matters.

I don't entirely know what I'll do with the second one, but I'll figure something out. It's just there to keep me sane anyway, gives me something to do that isn't school-work!
