Bridal Shower Gift

I just spent my entire evening/night/early morning hours making a present for my friend's bridal shower. I think the most time consuming part was my attempt at bedazzling [read as: rearranging iron-on rhinestones one by one into an aesthetically pleasing design.] The backbreaking work paid off and I am very pleased with the sparkles. Here's the part that took the longest amount of time!

Only drawback from this project--I am a bit disappointed with my fabric choice. I try to get similar fabrics for projects but I somehow ended up with one stretchy fabric among the normals and it made the project a bit wonky. Sigh, I have to settle for imperfections as the shower is this Saturday --hopefully the bride-to-be does not mind!

EDIT: Here's the apron it all it's glory

I finally finished the yoga mat bag for S...just in time for M's birthday! So, I whipped up a quick bag for her too >.< Wooooo!!

  

Yoga mat bag took me a couple months to make because I wanted it to be a bit more fitted than what I made myself and I am quite happy with how it turned out. The nautical bag, on the other hand, was made on the fly with less planning. Maybe this goes to show that I'm getting the hang of this sewing business :)

EDIT: I added a zipper to yoga bag to make it fit better. No pics, but it now fits the mat like a glove. Ooooh, yea!
