My granddaughter Nellie will be starting school soon in New Zealand. Naturally she will need a book bag. Naturally Ouma (that's me) is happy to make one for her. Such a blank canvas is tempting to a tatter, but I'm trying to keep it business-like. I did add a dangle to the pencil case zip. It can easily be removed if it's too frivolous. I also gave the pencil case a bright lining which will be hidden when the case is closed. I think a tatted bookmark might be in order......
What a lovely bag! - she's such a long way from you, do you make the trip often, to visit?
ReplyDeleteIt is a long way! We went there in 2010, but no, we don't visit often. Glad of e-mails and sms messages. Communication is easier than it once was.
Deletethat is darling. what a lucky little girl to have such a handy grandmother.
