Success! Taylia is so proud of her finished Library Bag. The only sewing that I did was the line around the top of the actual bag to (a) close the opening where she turned it inside-out and to (b) make the handles a little bit more secure. She took to the sewing machine like a duck to water and made the bag in two 2-hour stretches with a little break in between for Nanna to have a cuppa. I took the photos as she worked so she can take them home to show Mummy and Daddy because she reckoned that they would not believe she did it all herself.

To you both - Viv and Taylia - Congratulations on a job well done..... Viv for the teaching and Tay for the sewing. It is truly a beautiful bag!
Hi Viv and wonder student Taylia.
I scrolled through the library bag making posts, you have great taste Taylia, the bag looks wonderful and your catch phrases could be "Let's Sew" or "Let's read"
This bag will be an inspiration to do both. Well done Taylia!
Hi Vivienne and Tayla!
I recognized that big smile as the one my students wore along with the clothing they made in Home Ec. class. Sewing is a wonderful skill! Vivian (in Canada)
