Canvas

I have a few little embroidery pieces, and I've been wondering what to do with them, so I thought I'd see what they would look like mounted onto canvas.
It's done very simply, I've tied it on with a few tiny stitched in strategic places, and they've ended up being almost invisible.
 
It probably won't suite everything, but for this piece, I like it.

Another bag

I had enough of the canvas to make another, but smaller bag, so finally got to make it this week.  There are a few changes from the first one I made.
 There is only one pocket on the front between the handles, and one on the inside.
Once I had boxed the bottom, I stitched in seam up the corner seams so that it keeps it's shape.  This is the first time I've done this and was quite pleased with how it turned out. 

I do have a piece of canvas left, so I may make a little zipper bag to go inside for keeping little bits and pieces together.

I'm not quite sure what's next.  We seem to have had a bout of food poisoning, or a nasty 24hr sickness bug, so it's going to have to be something gentle.
