All the Trimmings

I will have a booth at the All the Trimmings show on December 4 and the Chelsea Fair Grounds and I'm starting to feel the stress. I have been making quilts like crazy and now I have several tops still to put together and quilt.  I have a fear of having a booth piled high with quilts and not selling anything  so, I have taken a break from those big projects to make some smaller non-quilt items for the show.I recently found Keyka Lou patterns.  I really like the clean lines and straightforward assembly of these bags.  The little clutches don't use much fabric and I put batting between the layers for a soft finish.I am really pleased with how this wristlet camera bag turned out. If I still used a point and shoot I think I might keep this one for myself. It also has batting to cushion the camera inside.My favorite pattern has got to be this shoulder bag.  I love those pockets on the front.  It also has a magnetic snap closure. I had never put one of those in before. I am an instant fan!I have done well to use fabric on hand but I have used up all of my interfacing. So, I guess I will trek to the fabric shop. I shall have to put on blinders and go directly to the interfacing and only the interfacing.
