A few weeks ago I had the awesome pleasure of being able to hit the beach with a few of my Yams. My first project was to do some pattern testing for

Elizabeth

. This is the

Perfect Zip Bags pattern

. Elizabeth supplied me with a sweet little pack of fabrics to work with and away I went. Afterwards I played photographer in the yard of our getaway house.

Gabrien also made a sweet little tote bag from a pattern designed by Monica for Better Homes and Gardens. You can find the pattern on their

All People Quilt site

. I love this sweet little pic I took! The tote is made with

Lotta Jansdotter's new line, Echo

.

Happy Sewing!
