getting a little loopy



it's the day before the bar exam & I'm doing everything to distract myself from the next two days of pure thinking! So, I made myself a couple of belts for my upcoming trip to London & Scotland.

My mom bought me two pairs of walking shorts for the trip and they came with these long "sash" like "belts" that you, i guess, were supposed to knot & tie to use as a belt. I've never been a fan of that look. Instead, I took the fabric, threw a little batting inside, used some D rings I had around & a little looped free motion quilting, and ta-da! new belts that I'll actually use!



I'm pretty happy about them both :) now I'm on to distract myself even further before my self-imposed bed time of 9pm. I tell you, this exam could make you lose your mind...thank goodness I have my sewing/quilting to save my sanity!!

see you all after the bar!!
