The third friend in the group - who like me will not be joining them- and because I did not want her to feel left out I decided to make her an origami bag - in shades blue of course. I had already made the bag and only needed to slot through the ribbon tonight.
Sometime ago - about 4 years - I made a change pad for Miss M and there was a piece of the waterproof fabric left over which was put to good use today as well. I always carry a bottle of water with me when going out for the day and I am sick of having a "wet patch" in my bag from condensation. No more will this problem occur again.
As you can see the outside is waterproof and is lined inside with terry toweling to absorb any moisture. I now have a dry bag and the water keeps cool inside its holder. A win win situation.
Tomorrow hubs and I celebrate our wedding anniversary. We are heading off to our favourite restaurant for lunch to celebrate.

Back soon and in the meantime
Happy

Great shoe bags, love the oragami bag, you have been very busy. Happy anniversary 😁
What lovely and useful items. Looks like a busy FNSI
You have been productive! A clever solution for the condensation from water, and a great way to use scraps! x
You are so sweet to make the bags for your friends. I'm sure they'll appreciate it and think of their friend while in Vietnam.
Useful BLUE projects for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge (and Happy Anniversary!!!)
Congrats on your clever uses for your blues!!
Having a shoe bag is such a great idea. Love the shoe outline - so cute
Happy Anniversary! I have made shoe bags for friends in the past too. Brilliant idea to applique a shoe on them. Definitely something I will be doing in the future. Thanks for the idea and for linking up with Oh Scrap!
Great set of bags you got done. So sweet of you to get one done for each friend.
