I'm Back

After a short break due to technical difficulties I'm back! I received a lovely package in the mail yesterday from Erin. I sent her some vintage sheet fabric a little while ago for this project and she sent back a lovely journal.
I think this is what the crafty blogging community is all about. People happily lend a hand and don't expect anything in return but there is usually a lovely little surprise that comes your way. Thanks Erin.

I have also had heaps of projects floating around in my head lately. I lie in bed at night not able to sleep because I am thinking so much. This bag has been on my mind since we went to a recent wedding and I didn't have a small bag to take. I made this drawing (yes I am a crap artist) ages ago.Then this week a girlfriend rang to see if I wanted to go to dinner this week and I thought a new bag might be on the cards because I didn't really want to lug my larger everyday bag with me so I whipped this up. Ok maybe not whipped, there was quite a bit of unpicking and a bit of swearing (at myself and the machine) but finally I came up with this. A lovely aqua print on one side and some Aunty Cookie on the other. I was really happy with the final product and can see a few more of these surfacing especially in a larger size.


On a final note a BIG THANK YOU to Angela of Leeloo for getting my bobby pins featured in Shop Till You Drop magazine.

Oops I almost forgot. Check out this blog to win a fantastic quilt.
