More Catching Up

Many moons ago I took a sewing class to make Amy Butler's Weekender Tote. I think it was early spring. My friend Heather was teaching it, I believe I talked her into it.

I showed the fabric awhile back. Here is the finished product.


Unfortunately I am not really able to claim this as my own FO. It was a tricky project for a beginner and my machine wasn't up to the challenge either. Many tears were shed. My mom took it home and asked her seamstress friend to finish it for me. I feared this might be the end of my sewing but I got back on the horse to make Clarabel's ballet bag. I am also gearing up to start a quilt soon and maybe even a Halloween costume.

Thanks for sharing all your opinions about gossip. There is a lot of wisdom there. I agree that there is a difference in talking about others and speaking disparagingly about them. I have been practicing Sophanne's keep your mouth shut mantra and it is working.
