Baable Hat number 3 with Black Sheep

I made another Baable Hat, this time for my brother. He is going skiing in January and this will be perfect for him. I think I'll save it to give it to him for Christmas.

I just couldn't resist adding the black sheep.

I really enjoying making these hats, it is a fantastic pattern and fairly quick once you get past the 2x2 ribbing.

How do you like my new hat?

Bionic Gear Bag - Rip Stitcher review

Today I've finished the second Bionic Gear Bag I have ever made. This one is going to be gifted to my mother in law next week for her birthday.

I originally saw these bags on instagram and was a fairly new sewer so at first put it off. Then I decided to challenge myself and purchased the pattern. 85 pages later and my brain was frazzled! On Craftsy it is ranked as a beginner pattern, but the way the pattern is written is not beginner friendly in my opinion.

I couldn't understand past the first few steps then luckily found a fantastic series of YouTube tutorials that saved the day. Other than the cutting out, I just followed the video rather than the pattern.

Anyway, that said, I've made two bags with a third on the machine and I think the finished product is fantastic.

What do you think?
