Did you use a tutorial for the bag? Any tips or pointers. What great gifts, nothing beats homemade.

I never even though about making her a pencil case for school. I am completely with you on the subject of fitting in. Ellie struggles a lot at school for some reason and I keep telling her she doesn't have to fit in, and that she is original and not one of the herd.<BR/>I hope Dot has a lovely time at school and all her peers are jealous of her lovely things.Jenniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04709117386653876640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171472706505057697.post-51317693719427635112008-09-01T10:26:00.000+01:002008-09-01T10:26:00.000+01:00wow what lovely presents!wow what lovely presents!GUGAWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10095156091465578848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171472706505057697.post-63161181275658888232008-08-31T08:51:00.000+01:002008-08-31T08:51:00.000+01:00Happy birthday Dot!

I know from bumping into old school friends - the ones you thought were the cool ones at school are the ones with 23 kids, plainer than flour, miserable as sin and TERRIBLY BADLY DRESSED!!! Dot will be fine, she'll find kindred spirits and.... I have just thought...that bag IS designer, am I not mistaken - those are DESIGNER fabrics, and it's a couture piece, from the house of locket?
