My "creation" (such as it is)





Well, I am NOT a "crafty" person by nature: domestication is not my strong suit at all. For instance, today, I decided to treat my family to cookies (and I cheated). My most excellent and "never-fail" Chocolate Chunk Cookies came to me courtesy of a school fundraiser (thaw, roll in a ball, smash down, and bake for 12 minutes at 350 degrees) - and I didn't burn a single one (unlike my popcorn). coughs
Anyway, I have been trying to learn to make pouches for my pet sugar gliders, just so I have some on hand in between washings, and, well, sometimes pouches just wear out too quickly. I have always bought my cage pouches, bonding pouches, etc. (from the vendors I've listed below in my sidebar), but since I have a sewing machine, and I hadn't burnt any cookies - I was feeling "lucky" and I thought I'd take a little trek into "some domestic duties" - sewing!
Here we go: This is my first "travel pouch." It's double-layered (seamless interior) and sports a 7-inch zipper (hey, it's all I had in a color that matched my fleece - but this was just thrown together). The strap is double-stitched into the top of the pouch, but in the future, I'd make this detachable (if I am brave enough to try again). The pouch measures: 11 inches wide by 10 inches tall, with a 28-inch strap. Anyway, it'll get me between here and there if I need to go out for a quick something or other.
This was a fun project!!

Thank you, Karen! That means A LOT coming from you! :) I actually had FUN making it, which was something I did not expect with my "evil machine."
Haha, oh dear! I am not that good, dear... but I will happily show you how I did it. :) We need to hang out at the SGGA!
