Craft Swap

A friend of mine (thanks Nicole!) told me about an online craft swap that she had participated in last winter. The premise is easy - you get paired up with another crafty type person, get to know each other, and then send them a gift! This is sponsored by a really fun blog called Craftaholics Anonymous. She has a fantastic tutorial page if you are ever looking for inspiration.

I was paired up with a really fun lady from California. She she works full time outside the home and then full time inside the home as a Mommy to a toddler. During our correspondence I came up with the idea of making her a messenger bag.

Love choice of fabric - black and white with splash of pink! Perfect!
