A Bag for Boo

Boo moved up to the big girl class at Nursery today, and owing to some bizarre no backpack rule, a drawstring bag was required instead, and so a drawstring bag I did make.

I found an embroidered panel buried in my UFO pile, and as I had some red polka dot fabric kicking around, it was the perfect quick fix for a little bag for my little Boo. It took me a while to find the original blog post, it turns out this embroidery has been hanging around for four years!

Miss Boo is most pleased with her little bag, which will hold her blanket - or at least one of the remaining chopped up bits of her blanket, her dodo (otherwise known as a pacifier) and a change of clothes.

Apologies for the poor photos, I had to take them at night and the flash is never kind to me.

    Absolutely adorable! Little drawstring bags are my favorite things to make! I am so glad you made use of the gorgeous embroidery! It fits in perfectly!
    I can just see little Boo hopping happily into class with her new bag.

    Adorable bag! Seems strange to prefer drawstrings in the nursery...but you made MORE than the best of it!

    I'm stopping by from Swa-Bot as part of the Blogger swap. Love the bag, although I've never understood why schools have no backpack rules. <3 Vanillaperv
