First I made a couple really cool wraps, based on the Lululemon Vinyasa scarf. Basically it is like a big rectangle with snaps than can be used to make it a wrap, scarf, cowl, shawl...there is a video of the 10 ways to use it! I decided to make a couple with Liberty and chambray. It has been a great fall accessory! Don't mind the post full of crappy iPhone pictures...it seems I am too lazy to pull out my fancy camera anymore!
I also decided to make a liberty pouch. I actually planned to make enough for all my friends I was meeting at Craft South, but only got one done, so Kelly (kelbysews) was the recipient. The outer is patchwork of Liberty and chambray, the inner is a robin's egg blue shot cotton. I made it large and square to accommodate and embroidery hoop and also put a piece of felt inside, suitable for storing needles. I plan to make another for me (eventually).
I STILL have a Liberty quilt planned, which one day I will get to actually piecing- it is cut up and ready to go. It is such a lovely fabric to work with, so soft...but pretty pricey. Used sparingly!

Love the wrap and pouch and of course Liberty :-)
That scarf is awesome! I'd love to make one for my mom. Did you use a tutorial or just figure it out?
Love that wrap/scarf/cowl! What a brilliant idea .....I may just have to put that one on my must make list ! I’ll have plenty of time – we wont be wearing neck and head gear here again until at least April.
And your pouch is adorable too. Liberty is very expensive here ...last time I checked it was around $54.00 per metre:(
My coworker has a vast collection of those lululemon scarves and I've thought about cribbing the pattern in a knit fabric. But I love your idea too!
