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.

Life and Retirement
I spent part of the day working on a bag that has been waiting to be finished, only to discover that I have 3 bags, a diaper bag, 2 cosmetic bags, 2 jewelry bags, a pattern or 2 that I want to study for the technique(like a drawstring) and who knows what all. On top of all that our church is having a Christmas bazaar and want me to have a table. I have maybe three bags that are finished and maybe a half dozen felted bags from a few years back. I could maybe dig up a baby afghan or two. Other than that I got nothin'. Not enough for two days!!!! So unless I can be super woman and work at this day and night it won't happen. I really am disappointed too. I need to be more visible. I just don't see any way it is going to happen. To much work and to little play is what is happening. I enjoy the work and in a few years I will quit. Hmmmmmm So this is what retirement is like.
