What I'm Working On...

Quite a while ago, December maybe, I purchased this pattern at one of my local quilt shops (Thimbles, in Lockport...but I can't find their website....I know they have one now, but I sure don't know what I did with that e-mail...)

I'm using this fabric for the outside of the bag:


The pattern is just the colored part, not the black part.  It is from the line Spellbound by Art Gallery Fabrics.  I have a cute coordinating plaid for the lining.  Anyway, I have the strap made (for the most part...have to add some buttons and button holes and I don't know how to do the button holes on my sewing machine yet) and I also now have the sides all stitched together and topstiched.  I think the rest of the sewing should go fairly smoothly.

And, no, I haven't made much more progress on the quilt that I wrote about in my previous post.  I'm pretty sure I have crafter's ADD, so I will eventually get back to it, but for now I'm with the bag.

Cute fabric. It looks very retro!

I know all about stitching ADD! Sometimes it seems NOTHING gets finished. LOL
