Getting that To Do list down!

Another thing off my list!  WOOHOOOO!!  You don't know how happy that makes me feel.  2 more "must do's" and then I can go back to doing things that I've set aside.

This is for my SIL for her birthday.  Okay, her birthday was a month ago and she request a bag almost a year ago but that's fine.  :)

I like how this one came together.  Came together rather quickly.  I made myself the largest size (the pattern has instructions for 6 different sizes) and I found it's way too big.  Now that I'm seeing this one; this one is better fitted for what I would use it for.  Hmmmmm, another tote bag in my future?!  LOL!




ONLY thing I would do differently is use another color for the "C" stitching.  You can't really see it.  I should have used white or a lighter blue.  I wanted to but I debated with myself and the darker blue won.

I'm excited to have only a few more things left on my list that I HAVE to do.  Then I can work on my FQS BOM blocks and Amelia's pillow shams for her quilt.

Enjoy your day!
Jen :)
