Winter blues Kidlet

I think this is a lovely idea...especially for swappers.....a catch all for our swaps to be mailed.

I love the shades of blue......robin's egg being my favorite. :-D

What is a kidlet?

Starwatcher, I think a kidlet is like a bag with deep pockets and a strong handle that you hang up over a door handle or hook. It is a catch all for books, magazines, sewing goodies, patterns, knitting junk...you name it! I found ideas on Flickr. Hope this helps.

This is a great idea, going to add this to my watch list since it is so far out, but I will be joining this swap. I would love something with sunflowers or daisy's my craft room is done in a kindof country theme, colors are mainly tan and maroon and some yellow.

On this page there is a link to a [tutorial] (http://jchandmade.typepad.com/jc_handmade/2008/01/for-you.html). Scroll down to 'Free PDF download.'

Sorry you all just got back on the computer this week and I am trying to play catch up. I forgot to add the directions to the kidlet. I think this will be a cute one. Robin

Color preferences: warm yellow orange with another color. I like intense clear colors with light neutrals. For a bag like this I'd prefer a larger print.

A neutral bag with a colorful pocket and lining would be just fine. I like all the examples in the instructions. Or let your imagination run wild, I'll appreciate anything handmade.

What a fun idea!! Let your fancy take you!!

I love that pattern and the fabrics she uses!! My preferences are in my profile. Happy sewing and a lovely Christmas!

My favorite colors are blue and green and I LOVE polka dots.

I guess it's time to make a new bag. These sound great. I'm not particular on this. Any color or combination is fine, just not too girly or goth.

I like pastels or bright saturated colors.

I just thought I might mention that there is a 'Kidlet" FlickR group where we could share our creations with each other. It's also a good place for a bit of inspiration. Happy New Year to all!

Thank you so much for including me in this my first swap I am pleased to meet you all. I like all colours except for greens and browns my real favourites are pink and lavender florals I look foward to making and receiving

I just made my first Kidlet to try it out, and they are just to cute for words. You will have fun with this one you all.

Thanks for mentioning the Kidlet flickr group @LindaRuthie

Have fun with this swap everyone. And thank you for signing up.

I forgot to take a pic of my kidlet wonder if my partner would do that it was my first swap and anxious to get under way.

I will take a pic and send it this evening!
