I&#8217;m just saying.<\/p>\n<p>So, here we go.<\/p>\n<p>First up, Addie has been asking me to make her a &#8220;kitty purse&#8221; ever since I made <a href=\"http:\/\/barelycontrolledchaos.wordpress.com\/2009\/01\/27\/crafty-tuesday-54\/\" target=\"_blank\">Em&#8217;s dance bag<\/a>. She visited the fabric store with me the other day and I just followed her around and giggled at her pure delight and her exclamations of <em>&#8220;Ohhhh, look at this pretty one Mama!&#8221;<\/em> I think she may have inherited my love for perusing aisles and aisles of fabric.<\/p>\n<p>She actually found this fabric and declared it <em><strong>the one<\/strong><\/em> for her kitty bag. So I put a little one together for her. And what do you put in a kitty bag? Lots and lots of kitties, of course!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a title=\"DSC_0002.jpg by Voris, on Flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/voris\/3361274121\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3609\/3361274121_4e0112bb82_o.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0002.jpg\" width=\"600\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I maybe should have made the bag a little smaller. I think at one point she had six cats in there while she lugged it to the gym. I do love the coordinating fabrics we found, the gingham, the striped, and the inside fabric.<\/p>\n<p>Addie was all smiles, and Marie seems to be enjoying it, too!<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"DSC_0004.jpg by Voris, on Flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/voris\/3361274349\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3595\/3361274349_303405b52a_o.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0004.jpg\" width=\"800\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>And, like I mentioned above, I had a couple of other bags that I desperately wanted to finish and get out to my very patient friends. I found a fun green tomatoes fabric that I thought was kind of spring-like and earthy and decided to use it for these two bags.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a title=\"DSC_0017.jpg by Voris, on Flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/voris\/3362092204\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3638\/3362092204_d56faf77b1_o.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0017.jpg\" width=\"600\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a title=\"DSC_0007.jpg by Voris, on Flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/voris\/3361274891\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3453\/3361274891_0760a6976d_o.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0007.jpg\" width=\"600\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Plus, I think I finally got the proportions right for a reusable shopping style bag.
