Feb 14....

Happy Valentine's Day to all those that celebrate this one!

(we don't in this house....)
it's a bittersweet day for me,
24 years ago my Dad passed away...

but it's also a day of joy,
it's also a friends daughters birthday today...

happy birthday Kass.

whatever you are doing today,
here's to happiness! joy! friendship!
and most of all

LOVE!

(the photo in the banner says it all for me)

have a wonderful day,

the batik bag....

made with a lovely pattern by Loft Creations.
goes together very quickly...
made a couple of changes to suit me...

(next time would make a couple more...
only very minor,
but I think would be better for me)

another bag....

this is the one I made for Diva this afternoon...
ED pinched the other one...

and the new batik bag is also complete...
(if I wasn't doing the one above, it would of been!)

another bag...

finished this bag a couple of days ago...
denim back and bottom, leftover strips with lots of machine embroidery for detail, denim straps....

PS excuse the messy shelves in the background!
might get around to cleaning them up soon...
DH wants to paint the inside of the house...reckons I have to do my sewing room, cos he can't get in here, there is too much stuff to move! so I have to paint it...yeah right!

some oppy finds...

found this great bag for three bucks at the op shop yesterday...
and some lovely cotton drill...

not what I was looking for, but it will do!

started making some more blue and white 9 patches..
these are 2 1/2" (2 inch finished size),
decided that I would like a blue and white quilt (probably do a lap size) like the one I did for Denice in our SSCS swap....
just going to do them as I feel like it...no deadlines!
