Shoe Bag

My creative brain has been neglected lately. Well, not in the work sense, but in the sense of making pretty and useful things. Finally, I had a night when I didn't have late meetings. I made this shoe bag. I'll use it next week for the big work trip.

Here's the tutorial I followed, from Betz White who wrote Sewing Green. The nice thing about this shoe bag is that it takes little fabric - a perfect scraps or salvaged fabric project!

Have a good work trip. Our minds do need the creative outlet from time to time don't they? Nice shoe bag.

Very cute!

Betz White is also the author of Warm Fuzzies. This is the book that has the patterns for the felted teacup pin cushion and the felted purse that I made you. :)
