Soap Bags

 

I share a table at the market with a friend who makes soap. Sarah wants small bags to put soap in. She thought that my sewing pupil might like to do the job. He did 10, but that was enough for him. He's only 11 years old, so an order  for 50 bags was more than he could manage.  I said I'd have a go. This is half the order, which I'll take to the market, and then I'll do the rest next week. They take a bit longer to do than the jewelry bags and I'm still developing my rhythm, but I'm sure I'll soon have the hang of it. 

I have finished the pink/grey gloves and made a start on the blue/grey ones

I'll use the same Spragues pattern. Diane did some research and discovered that sprague is a word derived from Old English that means alert or lively. Thanks Diane!
