hello everyone I'm still here...Just got over the flu, my daughter got over the stomach flu and our son is home. It has been a long, challenging week full of trials...More on that later. Before we went to Canada I realized, heck I don't have a camera bag to keep my camera safe while traveling and walking around. Next best thing was to create my own camera bag with scraps I had on hand. We are on a very tight, frugal budget...so I couldn't go out and buy one...
I knew it had to be colorful of course.
I designed it on paper first, then made a pattern, sewed up a bunch of different fabrics, sewed it together and made a cardboard covered bottom for sturdiness and four plump little pillows for the inside which will keep my camera safe from bumps...a strap and Velcro closure were added and a big woolen heart.
It worked out great, not to mention it was original and cute with a bit of funky...It kept my camera dry and safe while walking around Toronto in the rain and it was snug as a bug while traveling. I love it...Next I will make myself a camera strap...I didn't have enough time before the trip...
Hope you have a sweet weekend.
