Oh Agi this absolutely gorgeous. I think the pruple colurs are very effective just as much as the traditional blues. Such a shame about the material I hope the new piece is better.

The bags are wonderful and will be cherished for lifetimes. Your students will always remember you I am sure they were delighted.

Sorry about the material Agi, what a disappointment for you.
The stitching is wonderful though. The colours go together perfectly and I think it will look amazing as a pillow.

Absolutely beautiful work. I understand about the fabric not being as good as you had hoped. I would rather wait for a better pice of cloth then to have such a wonder piece ruined because of fading

Just a last update about the bags. I have just got some pictures about our farewell day. A colleague of mine took them.

Ooh Agi, I love pictures (even if I don't know the people :lol: ). What a nice group of students. The bags are great. You've left them with a lasting memory and that is priceless. :applesauce: :applesauce: to you.
