Well, guess who got a little productive over here and finished the bags!!
However, I'm feeling a
little embarrassed (the red was just for effect, in case you were wondering) about
just making a post regarding my Etsy Shop, so I wanted to include something free, as well. : ) I recently bought this kit (pictured below) with much excitement because I had seen these made up and thought they were beautiful.
Finished product (

To my surprise, the pattern and instructions were not included in the kit. That would cost me another $13. Somewhat dismayed, I looked around for a tutorial and found a great one over at 'UK Lass in the US'. I thought I would share it with you, too! Go
here for her wonderful tutorial.
Thanks so much, UK Lass!
I'm off now, to clean up the "aftermath"... from having all this fun. Wish me luck...I'm going to need it!! : )

Those look great. You have been busy. Thanks also for the link to the pin cushions. I made the pear one (or one like it) out of wool last November.
Neat bags, and they would serve 100 purposes.

You are so talented. Love the fabrics. Your Mom looks great and I am glad your family was able to visit her. Now no pattern in the kit is strange? Have a good week.
