crafting

There is just never enough time to do all of the fun crafting and sewing projects on my list of "want to do"!!   A couple of weeks ago Katie and I wrapped plain cuff bracelets with houndstooth ribbon (Roll Tide, of course) but didn't get to add any embellishments. So, this afternoon I really wanted a project that

could be done while watching some football. This evening finished 2.

purse sewing

Back in August JoAnne's had some special 9-11 remembrance fabric that I really liked.

At the time, sure wasn't sure what I would use it for but decided a handbag would be nice. 

In September while browsing fabrics, I ran across a collection from Alexander Henry  - The Ghastlies. Totally fell in love with all of the pieces! Another handbag - Amy Butler "Frenchy", and some little accessory bags - an in the hoop zippy bag and another Amy Butler design.
