I thought I'd pick something "back to school" related for the next sew-along.

I've put together both a video tutorial and a picture/slide tutorial (http://forum.threadbanger.com/showthread.php?p=103910#post103910)for a Basic Denim Pencil Case that you can find here: http://forum.threadbanger.com/showthread.php?p=103910#post103910 (http://forum.threadbanger.com/showthread.php?p=103910#post103910)


Here's a picture of the one I created. I'd love to see what everyone else can put together. :)

I made it a bit smaller.

I had some leftover cloth that i took the skull out of and sewed some lace aroud it. (that took a while!)

here is a detail pic!!!!

This was fun & super easy.
I am going to use mine as a makeup bag.

Mine's a bit "innapropriate" to just throw up the picture, so I am linking you to the picture on my myspace. Please do not click if you get offended easily, or if you're a minor, I guess.

For some reason I wasn't able to get either of the links to work. I'd really like to see your bag... :(

i don't get it
is a sew along just one person shows their project
then everyone else can post pics of theirs on the same thread?

well, a project is first decided by the instigator of the sew-along. then, if you want to participate, you make your own variation of the stuff and post it.

I'm having my finals this week, so I guess I won't be making either a second hobobag or a pencil case before aug. 2nd :mad:

Go ahead and then just post your pencil case in this thread when you're done or create your own thread, but put a link in this thread so that everybody knows it was part of the sew-along.
