magandab Posted December 3, 2013 #4303 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Good morning ladies, Good news! Flickr is working today. Here are a few items. I am too busy this week. We are leaving again for Las Vegas on Friday to Monday for Andrea Bocelli concert. I will be shipping them next week. Have a fantastic day. Marie Marie, drive carefully. They are saying possible snow up here Thursday and/or Friday, especially in the pass. Highs are only going to be in the 40s! (yes, people, for Southern California, that's COLD!)

bowsprit Posted December 9, 2013 #4314 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Not looking for clothing, but looking for cloth bags. For years I left behind those beige cloth bags that HAL gave us, then I realised that they make great cushion covers for the porch benches. It is a great reminder of cruising, and a great advert for the cruiseline lol. Well, my timing is off, as HAL have switched to those bags made from recycled paper ( same as Princess etc.) These will not sew up at all. As they are basically paper, they rip easily. If anyone out there have some of the original ones to spare, I would be happy to re-emburse the postage. I need 4. I take the bag completely apart and then sew two together. I sure wish that Princess, RCI and Celebrity had cloth bags, I would like to have reminders of those lines also. Here is a photo of one of them made up.

cruzisme Posted December 9, 2013 #4315 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Wow, what a great idea! You did a great sewing job too! Did you have to add extra fabric to the bag fabric?:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowsprit Posted December 9, 2013 #4316 Share Posted December 9, 2013 (edited) Wow, what a great idea! You did a great sewing job too! Did you have to add extra fabric to the bag fabric?:) No extra material needed, in fact, when you open out a bag completely it may even be too long. If you look closely you will see two seams on the pillow. I had about two inches that I did not need, so I made two pleats and sewed down them. sorry, I do not know how to insert a photo to make viewing easier, but I guess that you have to click on the attachments to see them bigger. the second photo shows two of them on the bench that I made for a porch. In fact, I made a matching bench and that is why I need 4 more bags. In that second photo you can see a cushion made out of one bag also. I guess that all of you will be making these now and I will never see a bag :D oh yes, and you can see that I am making a table using the HAL tiles, I have the top done, but need more tiles to finish it off. Unfortunately I lost all my tiles from cruises long ago :( But once I have the top filled, I will grout them in and then make the table base. right now it is just sat on an old wicker table. .

Tonight I am cutting out a fancy top pattern for my next cruise. Geo, I would like to see what you are making. I make fancy vests for my hubby. Sorry if I have kidnopped this board for a while, but figured clothes are made out of cloth just like the bags lol Nice to see that the generosity of the CC ladies is still going strong.
