chug, chugga, chug


Things that make me smile.
When a family goes through Mother's sewing room and labels boxes of remnants: "Schnippatsh Joyce"
I especially liked discovering ticking fabric (ahhh, ticking fabric. Something homey and magical about it) And this one random scrap of kitty cat fabric. I love it.





Meanwhile, my sewing room door grows heavier.
I think I'm up to nineteen completed bags.




It's been fun.





Now, I'm moving on to neckties and taking a break from buttons for a bit.
And oh, how sweet it is.













Flap.
Done.
Now, I just gotta make the bag that goes beneath it.

Congratulations! You are such a heroine! Never conceiving of the smallest measure of personal leisure time for yourself while others are away. Instead, you ramp up bag production astronomically, marshal the troops, & steadfastly champion the Darfur cause to an ever widening audience!
You have no peer, you are simply one of a kind, wonderful & always, always inspiring! :0)
Always A Fan
