Latest bits and pieces

Well I haven't been doing as much sewing as I'd like but I have managed to whip up a few bits and pieces - 2 to be exact.  (Not that the first one is exactly "sewing"...the only bit of sewing was the pockets and hook to hang the calendar.)  The first came from a need for a place to hang our yearly calendar and other bits and pieces. We had a place in our old kitchen, but since the renovation, the wall that we hung all of our "stuff" on has gone..... so here's the creation.  Its not exactly what I wanted but it'll do.  I really wanted to do the pockets in a different colour fabric but didn't really have anything that "matched" and the hooks at the bottom - well I wanted them to be a bit nicer but with the time I had it was all I could find.

I then decided to make a little pouch from a tutorial I found on www.skiptomylou.com.  Here's the finish product.  I think its ok for my first attempt!  Might make a few more of these as they are a great size.  Perfect for make-up, "lady" products, small notebook and pen, medicines....etc that end up in the handbag.
