Remember the old ad?





"Which twin has the.............?""

Here's another slant on the theme:two Tote bags( aka "The Smart Handbag") http://sew-happy.com/ that I wrote of a week or so back;

One bag,and the number of " personality changes" is limited only by the number of covers one makes!

Another project completed

Another project was completed today..........stress levels are lower as a result!

I wont reveal any details,because as yet as the recipient is (I hope) un aware of it.
Team members involved have seen the results and I've been overwhelmed with the support they gave to this project.
My sincere thanks to you all(you know who you are)

On a less optimistic note: I made a difficult decision today and removed myself from a group I have been a member of for five years.
I cannot and will not tolerate self opiniated bullies inflicting themselves on others.
I probably hurt myself more than I did them,but my conscience is clear.

Don't expect any frothiness for a while..............I'm going beach days to recharge my batteries.

Things I'm thankful for...........
A wonderful caring husband
Wonderful caring friends..........some of whom I'll probably never meet vis a vis.
One lady who has taught me to count my blessings out loud (Waves to D and Tigger)
Other friends who stood up and were counted!
May God/Allah/whoever Supreme Being you believe in..........bless you all

One project completed

One "Smart Bag"!
Made with longer handles than pattern suggests,because C prefers a bag that can be utilised as shoulder bag for better security.
Closure is a magnetic clasp.
So, apart from constructing a couple of slip covers,so personality changes can happen,this is ready for delivery to its owner.
Now,to quilt and bind "that" project;
Construct a naked block or three;
and start sashing the Mother Goose quilt. Posted by Picasa

Digging in my UFOs



Because I've been busy panicking over a Round Robin for the CraftClub/CQCrazy combination I'm resorting to a quick fix for today's posting:
The first pic is of my attempts today at sashing a certain project!
(Where's Annie W when I NEED her!!)
The lower pic was pulled out for inspiration...........I should be constructing naked blocks instead of sitting here pecking at the keyboard.
