Possible Wadder & Sophia Progress
I had a big burst of energy the other day and spent some time in my sewing room. First, I fiddled with my Jalie twist top a bit. When I started this project, I went with my current bust size (which is much bigger than my pre-pregnancy chest), what I see happening with this top right now is that while it looks like it fits great in the front, the back is going to be too big (since the back has a 'cut out' part to it I'm not sure how I could salvage it). I'm putting this aside for a bit, but have a feeling this may be a wadder - I think I'm going to have to come back to this pattern once my body and bounced back from being pregnant.
So with that project put in a WIP pile, I decided to start sewing the Sophia! I managed to sew up the straps and attach them to the outer front panels (no piping yet) - I'm so happy with the way this bag is looking that I can't wait to get back into the sewing room to work on it!

I just got my pattern so hopefully I will have time to go to town. Can I ask what type of interfacing you bought? Joann's doesn't have SF-101 here.
