It has been a couple months since I posted to this blog. But here is what I have been doing.
My granddaughter sent me a message after Christmas that she was being deployed. Big issue---YES. Then she says---"Grandma? Will you take my puppy and train him while I am gone?" Soooooo being the grandma that I am I said "Sure". I think I had a memory lapse. Puppy???? Big PUPPY!!!! Shepard mix!!! Syrenn by name. I picked him up a month ago in Florida. He has gained just shy of 20 lbs in one month. AND he is definitely all puppy. My 2 dogs are not totally thrilled. Their laid back days are not the same. So until September we are working around the visitor.
On to the sewing. There isn't a lot of it going on. I have picked a few things I can do while I give myself time out from the pup. I have been going through scraps and sewing them together. For what I am not sure yet. But they will figure it out. I have also been cutting out small projects, such as clutches and small snappy bags. One day he will be extremely good and I can start sewing them together. How much fun will that be when all those things come together. Yayyyyyy!!!!!!!!
I have decided it is time for me to make me a new purse. That means I get to check out some patterns. I have a couple print patterns that I really like. I don't use many patterns but this one appealed to me enough
that I bought it. This pattern can be bought through http://pursepatterns.com/
I am in no way affiliated with either Lila Tueller or Pattern Pile. I just really like this pattern. Now to see if I have the right fabric.

This blog is mostly about my passion. Making bags. Of course life is not all about making bags and sometimes the outside world enters the bag world.
About Me
- Kathy
- I am a wife, mom, grandma and great-grandma. I love doing many crafts. Mostly I just like to be creative and use my own ideas. I don't usually buy patterns and I use my own interpretation of techniques. I started this blog to have a place to put ideas that I have come up with while creating. Some are very original. Some are combinations of others that I have seen. I am into techniques and what I can do to make them work for me. Most of the things I do started somewhere and have been tweaked to the point that they no longer resemble where they originated. I just can't seem to leave things alone. I am a member/moderator of "Sewing Tote Bags and Purses" a group that does just that with fabric and passion.
I like that pattern too!
ReplyDeleteOne of very few patterns I have purchased. It is always at the front of the pile.
