I worked on this project yesterday. I have found a lot of patterns for these, but I just went ahead and went with this one by Prudent Baby. It didn't come out totally how I expected, but it was okay... Stripes are always hard to line up and keep consistent (at least for me), so that was another obstacle.
The checkbook didn't fit as snugly in there as I had hoped, so I added an extra seam along the bottom edges... I also kept the ugly plastic one from the bank to keep some structure. So, it is far from perfect, but it was my first try.
Plus, the personalization was my added touch :) I am going to go crazy with a monogramming machine! Can.not.imagine!
So, this is yesterday's project... Once I get pictures of the cute pillow I worked on today, that will be next... Plus, bow blog still to come. I am very new to all this (sewing and blogging), so here we go...
