Hi gals, just made a couple of Mesh bags for either lingerie or putting your fruit in it when shopping. The panels have machine embroidery on them. I misread the first one’s instructions and that’s why I put a close zigzag stitch on the edges of the mesh and fabric. What a goose! These 2 bags were made in the 260x300 (my largest Husqvarna) hoop. The design is from Sweetpea ITH design.

Anyway, these were a trial run. I want to make some for my ladies luncheon in December.
I’m off to an Alpha Christian retreat in about an hou’s time and won’t be home till Sunday arvo. Once I’ve left the conference centre on Sunday I’m heading straight to Ben’s place for his 42nd birthday afternoon tea! Lucky me.
Have a great weekend and to all those who are not well I’m sending you my warmest wishes for a complete recovery. Love Chris

These are lovely, bright, cheerful and useful too. I think many will be asking for these besides your luncheon ladies.

Hi Jenne, I sometimes think it would be easier anyway. There are lots of videos online explaining how to do them just on your sewing machine. Love Chris

Hi Carolyn, I thought you'd love these. I just love the purple mesh and will have to buy some more, but I'll see if there are any other colours at Spotlight (my local fabric shop). Thanks for the loving message. Love Chris
