"Work in progress"

I'm sure I've mentioned before about my vintage fabric obsession. Even though it's threatening to takeover the house I can't resist buying more with the thought that one day I will "do something" with it. However when I think about "doing something" with it I panic about cutting it up and wasting it if I don't like the end result.
Finally I decided to cut some of it up and make a Japanese knotbag - a present/request  for /from my sister.
I drafted the pattern and sacrificed some less important fabric to try it out in first before cutting into some prime vintage, but the blanket material I have used looks nice and I might use that instead and add some crochet pieces instead......so still not used the vintage stash!!!
