A Little August Finish~

A few short weeks ago

it was the beginning of August...

Where did those days go?

My goal (#88) for this month was to turn this

pretty fabric

into a make-up bag for traveling.

I drew an oval to use as a pattern for the top and bottom,

then lined it with PUL for water resistance. 

It is tall enough for travel bottles, tooth paste, etc.

and has a pocket in the lid 

that is wide and flat.

The vinyl pockets have bias on the top and bottom

but are only sewn between the pockets.

They are located just above the bottom

so the pockets can be washed out and not get that

dreaded travel build-up!

The "floor" of the bag keeps items in their place.

Dirty running clothes can even go into

 the center so they don't 

touch clean things in her gear bag!

It was all loaded and ready to roll

back for  o n e  m o r e  semester.....

Yeowzer, did summer go fast!
