First try on mother - child bags collection

What a productive day! I even managed to catch with this bullet point on my long list of "to do things". This is my first try in making this child rucksack in the up coming collection of mother - child bag.

Marketing campaign bags for giveaways

Well, I have been busy making these ECO shoppers for my marketing campaign. With the e-shop up, not I'm working on spreading out the word about my work. So far I have had the local paper to run a press release, had a journalist to come over for a java coffee / cupcakes and had a long interview. Yesterday I got the photographer here to take some photos to accompany the big article (he got some nice photos made...).

So now,
I have the little albums: ready,
the bags: ready (regardless that we were bummed with a day care strike for one and a half week and it meant that I did the sewing when my son was sleeping...),
the addresses of lady journals and periodicals: ready
and just awaiting my new labels...

About the bags:
All made of medium - heavy weight cottons, The handles are extra supported to be able to handle the carrying. The sizes varies from medium size to large, so they can house a lot, but I guess one should deiced how much you want to carry.
All of them are machine washable on 40 degrees.
