Sewing: a new carry-all!

I have a problem with starting projects and never finishing them.

Anyone else?

It's just so *hard* not to be distracted by a pretty new piece of material, a new recipe, or a new photography experiment.

Nevermind that though.

I thought you might be interested in my newest undertaking.

I have officially purchased my first pattern. It was on sale for $1.99! Yippee!! (does anyone have any idea how much those darned things cost? because, woah!)

Anyway.

I found this fabric on the discount aisle and just had to snag a couple of yards. It's beautiful, isn't it? When I realized it reminded me of one of my favorite Petunia Pickle Bottom diaper bags, I decided to go out on a limb and try to make a bag of my own.

This bag, to be exact. And I'm going to line it with bright, cheery pink. Because I need more pink in my life.

I'm a little nervous. Is that normal?

Hint.

A few of you have asked what I'm up to with the fabric... and while it'd be fun to just tell you...



...it's more fun to give a couple of hints...



...and see what you come up with. Give it a try--it's not hard!

Confession.

I'll bet you clicked on that post faster than Lightning McQueen, thinking maybe my confession was about the rightful owner of those pregnancy tests, didn't you?? C'mon--fess up. I know at least one of you took the bait...

Anyway, remember how I wasn't supposed to buy any fabric? Well. I bought fabric.



Will you laugh at me if I tell you I think I'm in love?? I think I'm in love.



The gray fabric with the blue flowers, top of the pile in this photo, really catches my eye... but I think I like the pink prints the best... more specifically, the one on the left.



Which one is your favorite??
