I took the pattern with me to JoAnns and looked for exactly what the pattern listed (I think it even had the number for the fusible fleece, but maybe not) It turned out well. I made one for my niece out of home dec fabrics and it is really crisp looking. Mine was a Nigella fabric from Amy Butler. It's not as crisp, but still looks really good.The Hojnackeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11831225232147068760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515337.post-69699784570280640412008-04-06T03:59:00.000-07:002008-04-06T03:59:00.000-07:00This is amazing, absolutely stunning and of course...This is amazing, absolutely stunning and of course I want one, right now!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12895985573831346825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515337.post-66208117173485835852008-03-21T07:24:00.000-07:002008-03-21T07:24:00.000-07:00Genau diese Tasche schau ich mir seit ewigen Zeite...Genau diese Tasche schau ich mir seit ewigen Zeiten an. Ich tu sie in den Warenkorb und lösche wieder, ich leg sie 3 Tage später wieder rein und lösche wieder, usw. und so fort. Normalerweise mag ich knuddlige Taschen sehr gern, Taschen die sich drücken lassen und es auch nicht krumm nehmen wenn sie mal ein bißchen gequetscht werden. Aber bei der hat mir auch diese 'Steifheit' so gut gefallen, mal ganz abgesehen von der einmalig schönen genialen Form. <BR/>Also, ich find deine sehr hübsch, auch wenn sie nicht ganz so steif ist wie gewünscht. Aber da passen Stoff und Muster und Schnitt wunderbar zusammen. Fest und steif kannst du immer noch mal versuchen. Und eines hab ich bei deiner Beschreibung auf jeden Fall gelernt: kauf dir keine englische Anleitung wenn du nicht die geringste Ahnung hast wovon Steph da spricht! Fusible fleece??? Thermolam Plus??? Timtex??? Ich werd mal lieber bei den Burda Schnitten bleiben, auch wenn Amy Butler tausend Mal schöner ist!Krawugglhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01552314811678481044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515337.post-86743975170138154602008-03-20T05:28:00.000-07:002008-03-20T05:28:00.000-07:00=( Waaaaaah, howcome my bloglines isn't picking ...=( Waaaaaah, howcome my bloglines isn't picking up your updates?
