IT WAS ...

... quilt group in Congleton last night....I had a BIG list of things I was to remember to take with me (including milk as I was on tea-duty last night... got to the end of the road and had to go back home and get it!! lol) at the end of the list was one word.... squirrel !! I have NO idea why!! I was waiting...all night .. for someone to ask me about it ... NO-ONE did !! SO I have NO idea what it meant! Any ideas?

The lady who used to run the group emigrated to Grafton (NSW) in Australia 5 years ago... well she is in the UK for a flying visit... and she made it to the meeting last night. SOOO good to see her and hear what she has been doing. We had a make... Union flag.. I did not get to make it...tea duty.. but I have the pattern to play with.

NOW I have plenty of projects on the go, I have things that need finishing... or even starting!! SO... what did I do today?

WELL .....I started something new ... OF course!! I made a bag...


I am not really a bag maker...


BUT, I just wanted to!!..


The pictures make it look good..


That's because you cannot see the details AND I am NOT telling you (today!!) what I did wrong!! lol x

Keep smiling

I can't see your 'design opportunities' on the pic! Did I tell you I changed job location, from Congleton to ........err Crewe. Might bump into you. x

Your bag is fab! Can't imagine why it said squirrel on your list, but it reminds me of the dog in the film"Up"!

Did you make this bag from the pattern in the last post? It looks great made from the sweetwater's reunion fabric.

Does it have anything to do with nuts?
Your bag looks lovely and roomy.

I agree - that bag says "summer"!

What a great bag - you are so a bag maker! 'Squirrell' - perhaps you have tourettes!
