Hey Mercedes Sew Along Round-Up
The Hey Mercedes Sew Along posts are all finished and the completed bags are almost due to be entered to win some great prizes. If you need a recap, check out Day 1 for all the details.
I thought it would be fun to share some of the bags that have been completed so far. If you’re still working on yours, or haven’t started yet, you still have a bit of time. Maybe these versions will inspire you to finish yours up. You can also refer to the sewalong after the contest is over.
Crystal of The Cloth Albatross showed me this fabric before she started and I wasn’t totally sold, but she did wonders with it. Her Hey Mercedes bag turned out beautifully. I love the pretty lining and antique brass hardware she chose.

I love the bright colours Lisa chose for her bag. That bright solid green for the handles is so fun!
Kelly used rings for hers and she matched the pocket to the main panel perfectly. Fussy cut for the win! She also made her Hey Mercedes at 75% of the original size; it looks like a great scale for that print.
Sheri from Munkee Made chose some gorgeous Art Gallery fabric and paired it with coordinating glitter vinyl. That side panel looks absolutely amazing!
I’m loving seeing all the creations! Make sure to use #HeyMercedesSAL on instagram or upload your completed pictures through my contact page by March 31, 2016 to be entered in the contest to win prizes from Sitka Fabrics and Aurifil Thread.
