Economy Chicken!

Now that I know the 'economy blocks project' has reached its destination, I can show you the full reveal.

Economy Blocks Bag for Kirstie-001

This bag went to my bloggy friend Kirstie (England), as part of the 'Travelling Book' blog hop started by another bloggy friend, Teje (Greece)!

Economy Blocks Zippered Tote

The idea behind the Travelling book is you read the book, pass it on, and make something for the next person.  Cool idea eh?  You can see here the amazing mini quilt I received from Teje.

I'm so pleased that Kirstie likes the bag, especially the cute chicken. My favourite is this wee fella!

I wonder where the book will go to next!

  3. I love your bag Jude. I often find I want to try out blocks but don't want to make a whole quilt so bags are a really good use for them. Sue :)

  6. What a great idea to have a travelling book. Is it a craft book or a novel? The bag is really fun.
