Hello everyone!

Hope you all had a wonderful Easter weekend spending time together with the family and survived the slew of April Fool's jokes that were going on yesterday :)

I had a great time with my family and unfortunately succumbed to a few April Fool's jokes, one of them being from my very own state, the lovely Florida, who informed us that the main expressway I use to get to work was shutdown. And all the while I was driving through it, I was wondering, "What in the world are they talking about? It's not closed! OMG, I must be special! I must have beat it! Yes!" Yeah, no, that was not the case. April Fool's on me... LOL

Regardless of what happened yesterday, today is no joke on you. Today is Tune Tuesday's!

Today's Tune Tuesday is brought to you by the lovely Pat Bravo and her bright, groovy collection Carnaby Street.

Ladies and Gents, I give you Carnaby Calling!

FLOWER POWER! FUN! FASHION! Only the likes of the Rolling Stones and the Clash can lead this playlist with its rockin' companions such as the Dandy Warhols, Nancy Sinatra and more.

Get ready to rock the sewing machine with these groovy tunes that will inspire you to sew Carnaby all day and all of the night ;)

Until next time.... From my musical ears to yours,

Hi!

It's Katy from I'm A GingerMonkey here with a new tutorial for the Fat Quarter Gang.

My project is really simple drawstring back pack. You can download a PDF to keep on your desktop and print whenever by clicking here.

Jeni's first line for Art Gallery Fabrics is absolutely perfect for so many uses. I love the retro feel of the prints, and the bright colours. I knew I just had to use it to make this project.

The Jeni bag is the perfect size for a child's backpack, but it's also a good size to pop your essentials in for a trip to the gym, or if you're not much of a gym bunny, use it as your everyday bag.

I've already got more planned - I'm thinking of using them as laundry bags for my kids' rooms, to use instead of wrapping gifts for birthdays, and for Christmas wrapping as well.

They're really simple to make, and don't take long at all. There's nothing complicated, just straight line sewing and some bashing of grommets for the ties.

If you make a Jeni bag, I'd love to see it. Upload to the Fat Quarter Gang flickr group
