As I’ve stressed before in other posts, nautical is probably my all-time favorite theme! So making things from my Smooth Sailing collection was a no brainer! Sue Terpin’s Beach Bag is just too cute, I knew I wanted that for myself. Her pattern and directions are really easy to follow and the bag sews up in no time. The straps were really fun to do and surprisingly very easy. I will mention, the only thing I had difficulty with was attaching the metal grommets. It is very important to hammer those as hard as you possibly can, ha ha! 

I’ve got my halter and beach bag all done; I’d say I’m all set for the warm weather now!
