    Maybe it is too early, and I am only on my first cup of coffee. What is a planer sleeve? Love the fabric and the bag, and fabric and webbing for the beach bag.

    Oh I have been waiting for the beach towel bag since January! I have all the fabric and supplies, but want to see your smart tips before I start. Good luck! And can’t wait to see how they both turn out!

    I bought this book last summer so I think this is a great resource for inspiration and tips/tricks. I LOVE your ‘Ruffled Cafe Curtain’. Perfect fabric choice.

    Unique fabrics, can’t wait to see how they look made up.
    Everyone does such beautiful work on their projects, it is fun to see how fabrics look made into things. It helps me when selecting fabrics.
