I've Been Treated!

I just had to share this with you. Last week at the Twilight Stitchers Quilt Guild, of which I'm a member, the outgoing president presented lovely purses she had made to her officers. For the other members of the guild she made little shoulder totes. We each got to pick which one we wanted out of the pile. This was the one I picked. It has a long strap to sling over your shoulder. Whooohooo! Love it!

This is the front that had a zippered pocket

This is the back that has an open pocket.

WIP and other things

On my post I shared some quilt blocks I had been working on. I've finished another block to show you.

There are 2 or 3 more blocks to complete and then the hard part. There are many blocks that have to be 'set in' in L shaped corners. Oh, the joy. What did I get myself into? Another challenge Ollie!

Last week I was busy sewing up a storm. Among other items that I'll share in another post, I made a tote from leftover fabric that I sewed a sewing machine cover from and I used more of my favorite sheep fabric to make a tote to carry my drop spindle in.

In closing I just have to make a comment about our winter weather. Yesterday at 5 PM one could see the green  grass  brown weeds in the back yard and hey, even the stones in the driveway. By 9 PM we had approximately 12 inches of snow and this morning it totaled nearly 2 feet. More on the way tonight and tomorrow. I think I'll spend the day sewing hibernating.
