new bag

this is the beginning...
black denim main parts of bag with babushka dolls for the flap and possibly on the strap,
blue denim pockets on the side....
still thinking about the lining,
using a lovely pattern but changing a few details so it's more suitable for what I want....
more to come

quick update

wow, time flies...been a little while since my last post...
here are a few things I've been up to..
my gorgeous jade bracelet my girls gave me for Mothers Day

 a new cushion cover for the denim chair

 made a start on some more dresdens...the plan is to do one blade in every fabric in my stash and see where it leads me!

 and my modest purchases from a recent visit to the trunk show at QIB a couple of weeks ago.

made a new bag (can't find the photo, so will have to take another one in daylight) and made a start on a second one because I didn't really like the first on too much....ho hum!
