I chose some Moda fabric called Round Robin by Kathy Schmitz for
my bag. I loved the colors and prints so much I used it to make
a quilt, too! It's HERE on a previous post.
This is my little can. I cut a piece from a magnet sheet to fit the lid,
which holds my needles in place, and the can will hold several colors
of thread depending on what I need for the project I'm working on.
LOVE the fabrics!!!! Red and black...I'll take that one...or the Monkeys...I LOVE the monkeys. Oh, right, neither bag is the prize...my bad. Ok...I'll take the bear then. :)
ReplyDeleteSeriously you did a fantastic job per usual (and like I told the 'other' one...so nice neither of you are the competitive types...lol).
Love your Tammy bags! That other lady will be sew in love with the red and black one, lol! Now the monkey one is more my style, oops meant to say my GD's! She is a collector of the little beasts. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteLove the little sock monkey Tammy - cute !!
ReplyDeleteBoth Tammy bags are wonderful, love the colors of the first one and second one makes me smile, love the idea of the tin with magnet, I will start looking for the perfect size tin, thank you.
ReplyDeleteI really like the monkey one.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the give away.
Warm regards from Holland,
Marga♥
I love the moda fabric one!
ReplyDeleteThe one with the monkey fabric is to funny...love it!
Carol your bags are lovely...very chic on the red and black just love it....and the sock monkey well who does not like the sock monkey....this non-competitive vice that you and the "other" lady have is rather a hoot to read...take care and have a fun day.
ReplyDeleteHi Carol,
ReplyDeleteyour Tammys are so cute, and perfect sewn. Now I know, for the future we have to make a new Tammy for each quilt we will handquilt *lol*
Thanks for beeing part of this great hop.
Liebe Grüße

ReplyDeleteHello Carol
ReplyDeleteAt last it's your day. Lovely bags, and you CAN compete!! with "that other lady" :-) hehe..
Has been a lovely hop.
See you again soon.....
regards from Sweden.
You make me laugh! The bear in a bag is adorable. I guess we could say He (or She) is Tammified! Both bags are great. I love the competition between you and she who whose name is unspoken, HaHa!
ReplyDeleteThese bags are just too cute!
ReplyDeleteLOVE your bags -- what great fabrics! I can't wait to make some of these, as soon as I find some handles. :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, beautiful, beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteHi sweet thing...lol NOW really had you not said anything about the missing pockets I would have never known....HOWEVER how could you possibly miss that STEP....geeesh, everyone now will think I pressured you into making yet another Tammy Bag....lol
ReplyDeleteSeriously now, I love both of your bags equally even the one you forgot to add pockets too...
Classy, Elegant and filled with monkey business..
ps. from the less competitive one..
Wonderful bags! I like the first one the best and I'm thinking that I might have that print in my stash. Thanks for sharing (competing!) today!
ReplyDeleteNope, not a competitive bone in your body. Great job of both bags. I missed my inside pockets on the second one too. The monkey fabric is priceless. Thanks for coming to play with us.
ReplyDeleteCarol your bags are beautiful. Great can to hold the threads. I always put a magnet in my small empty mint tins and take my pins with me that way. So cute that everything coordinates.
ReplyDeleteLovely bags. What a great for the little tin with the magnet. Thanks for sharing today.
ReplyDeleteYou two are a good laugh!!!! I just love both Tammys Carol. Your fabrics are very nice in the ruffled one and the monkeys is fun...good job.

ReplyDeleteI see you have been "monkeying around " again! Cute! Thnx for the giveaway chance!
ReplyDeleteI have got to get some of that monkey fabric! On of my BFFs has a monkey and she'd love a purse made from that. :) And anything Kathy Schmitz makes I want. Sad but true. I'm making her latest BOM right now. Love, love, love these Carol. :) blessings, marlene
ReplyDeleteLove your bags and the eyeglass case has me thinking I better try ruffling :)
ReplyDeleteOh your Tammys are so lovely! The first one very bold and a beauty and the second one so cute and funny. Loove them!
ReplyDeleteCarol, how smart you are to have your Tammy's match those quilts ! And who needs pockets with monkeys anyway...right? hey, hey ! People say you monkey around, you were too busy singing, to let anybody down ! "sew" don't worry bout it ! Super cute bags!!
ReplyDeleteI love the monkey bag. I might just have to make one of them. The bags I have seen on the hop are just amazing. I really am enjoying seeing all the inspiration. It is awesome how the different fabric choices makes them look like they are a different pattern. No two are alike.
ReplyDeleteLove both your bags. You can't go wrong with red & black. The sock monkeys are rather cute as well.

ReplyDeleteI am late getting around today but I am loving what I am seeing so far! Both of the bags are fantastic! I cannot believe that you can put that large tin in there. The magnet is a good idea. The fabric choices are wonderful but did she beat you out in numbers again? I'll check further down the line! THX for the opportunity for your giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI Love your Monkey Tammy Bag!!! Its so super cute!!
ReplyDeleteAAH, ye "Old" Jealousy/Competitive Bug or whatever you want to call it has struck much like the worm in my squash plants.

ReplyDeleteBlessings

I'm sooo glad you are not competitive. You and that other lady would put everyone else to shame. ( I really did love the Dorothy bag.) Congrats on a top spot. That bag is gorgeous! And I love love the handle on your cute little sock monkey bag. Those BIG knobs. Where did you get it?
ReplyDeleteCarol, both your Tammy bags are wonderful...luv those little monkeys. You always inspire me...the magnet in the tin is a great idea. Thanks for sharing with us today!! Happy stitching, Pauline
ReplyDeleteCarol, loved your Tammy bags.
ReplyDeleteIt is nice to know that you are not competive with that other lady. I know she will love your beautiful black and red bag and so do I.the second bag is just adorable even without the. Pockets inside.
ReplyDeleteThe fabric you used for your project bag (and quilt) is so pretty! I think the second cute bag should hold treats for your monkey boys!
ReplyDeleteLove both your Bags, but first one (& your Awesome Quilt too!) is my favorite!!! Your lil' tin is soooo clever! Way cool idea!! Thanks for sharing!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the monkeys! They are the best! Thanks for the chance to win. I love seeing all the bags :)
