Pom-pom poochie

You only get the chance to write a post title like that once! Monica over at The Happy Zombie has come up with an ingenious little bag made from three fat quarters. She has christened it ' The Poochie Bag '. Thanks so much Monica, perfect timing - I needed a cute little birthday something to make for one of my daughter's good friends.
The only alterations I made to Monica's Poochie pattern , are the addition of some white pom-poms, the smallest bit of gingham trim and some pellon. The fabric combination is entirely inspired by Monica - bright & cheerful!
I won't even attempt to explain why she has called it the Poochie Bag - read The Zombie's hilarious explanation here ! If you've not read The Happy Zombie, pop over & visit. She is guaranteed to leave you in stitches & brighten your day!
Unfortunately, I can't give you any details about the fabrics I have used as I picked them up in a local furnishing store & there is no selvedge info.
And for Monica who is keen to know the contents of the bag ... a copy of Roald Dahl's 'The BFG' and the latest in accessory 'must haves' for eight-year-old Australian girlie's, a Smirk pencil case! A bright & happy weekend to all, Bloom.
