Ready!

I may not have got all prepared for my first lesson yet (a bit ashamed about it), but I will surely step into the schoolyard in style tomorrow!

How? 
With my new schoolbag of course featuring my initial letter.


 
It's a kind of a tradition of mine to make a new schoolbag every one or two years.I find it a nice way to start the schoolyear and sweeten the pill a bit...It's not the first initial letter bag I've made ( Λ  is the equivalent for L). Perhaps you remember these and this one made especially for friends. In June I made three more as presents and look at my girls posing! Aren't they lovely? 



I made their bags in a way that they can also get folded and kept into their purse to be used as an extra shoppping bag. Look how small they can get!


 The idea came in mind, because when I go shopping I hate it having lots of small bags in my hands,so I always take a bigger one with me to carry the smaller ones in it and free my hands. Of course they can be used as such.

 This September I thought it would be finally my turn! Considering my school needs I made mine with a thicker fabric, an interior pocket for my purse and hankies and I added ribbons to hang my keyrings from.


The bags turned out a total hit with my friends and their friends, so,in the case that you would be interested in a bag featuring your initial name or your friend's name in Greek,
 I would be happy to make one for you!
