Sean got a set of these classic wooden blocks from his aunt, uncle and cousins for Christmas, but check out the storage bag they came with.

Um. No. Or well, maybe I just was looking for an excuse to make this bag from (yet another) tutorial from In Color Order. I tell ya, JeniB has got it going on… This bag is the cutest, easiest thing in the world to whip up.

I used some of the fabrics that Faith destashed a while back, and I am nuts about how the main exterior fabric sort of echos the blocks designs.

Sean is crazy about the bag. Not so much about actually keeping the blocks in it though. I think we picked up all 50 blocks about 50 times this weekend because he would dump them out (with great joy as they made loud noise on the bamboo floors) and then prance around with the bag. Sometimes with the bag on his head. I sort of wonder about that child. Nah… that’s totally the kind of thing Alexis would have done too. ;)

    Wow! That is super cute. I want one for some of Hazie’s tiny toys!
    I really need to get a small beginner’s sewing machine. I’ve seen so many cute things I’d like to try.
