Blue Calla Sew-Along

Now it's time to announce my next sewalong! Celine at Blue Calla has some really fresh and original designs, and I'm happy to share the news that my next sewalong will be one of her patterns: the Iris Convertible Bag!

Iris is a medium-large sized bag that can be worn as a shoulder bag, or as a cross-body bag. The bag is loaded with pockets and has a few different options to really customize for your needs. You can also choose different fabric types for parts of this bag, like a vinyl bottom for example.

Gather all your supplies and join me back here on October 9 for a weekend of sewing. You'll have plenty of time to finish to be eligible to be entered for the fantastic prize.

I see the Blue Calla Iris price at 50% off but I do not see how to get the additional 10%.....Don't forget to use discount code OKAPI10 to save an additional 10%, and you can use that code on any of the patterns while you're there.

Hi Sheila, when you return from Paypal login, you will get a screen on the website to enter the code. It will be on the right hand side of the screen!

Hi Edith! There's no official signup, just sew along with the blog posts. The whole sewalong has now been posted, but many others haven't started yet, and there's still plenty of time for prizes. You can find Day 1 here: http://www.happyokapi.ca/blog/blue-calla-iris-sewalong-day-1
