What a Beach of a Week!

My week started out by finishing Noodlehead's Poolside Tote for my grandchildren. I found some really bright and cheery plaid for my granddaughter's tote. I had some whale fabric for my grandson's since he has a bathing suit and matching sun protection shirt with whales, what could be better?

Bright and cheery bag

Green lining and key fob
Whales, whales and more whales!

I love this lining!

Yesterday I found some cute beach cottage fabric that I forgot I even had so I decided to make s.o.t.a.k handmade's Two in One Clutch. I bought her pattern when she introduced it but I then took a hiatus from sewing and hadn't made it. What a mistake! It is a fun pattern  and picking out the fabric is a lot of the fun! I couldn't stop at one...no, I made two large and two small clutches and could sit and make a lot more if I didn't have so many things to get done!

The two zips. I decided I liked using two colors to pull from the clutch

Black and red zips for this one!

First small clutch
Purple and Green are fun colors


Boys need somewhere to put their money also!

Two tone zips again!

 So now you understand my "beachy" week. Totes and beachy fabric . Hoping you had a beach of a week also!
