I used to have acreage and huge gardens and flower beds, etc. but now only a lot in town. It still seems like ALOT of work! I still try to find a little time to craft during the summer too. Hugs to you!

The bag turned out really darling, and I love all the sweet details that you added to make it so over-the-top amazing! It must have been a real blessing for your sister to be gifted with something so special on her birthday! I've been inspired since visiting your site, I need to get back and get busy crafting again, but I've been so busy outside, lol!

I like variety in my crafting so like trying new and different things. Working with denim is fun and neat to recycle it into other things. Glad to see you are back blogging! Hugs..

That's all I want to do.. so I just try to go with it and eventually, the mojo for doing something comes back (thankfully). take care... xoxoxo MarilynMarilyn McLeod @ Pink Paper Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13166022624714254716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6181382386833074929.post-31599231680715421152017-06-12T21:22:16.995-07:002017-06-12T21:22:16.995-07:00I did have fun making this and saw her on Memorial...I did have fun making this and saw her on Memorial Day so took a few pictures of her holding the tote bag. I thought of posting it, but oh well... everyone has seen it already. I took a few more "good" pictures just so I'd have them. She said she is using it for her carry-on for their next plane trip. It really does hold ALOT of stuff!

You take so much care with you...Very cute, Marilyn. You take so much care with your creations. This must have taken hours to complete. I usually forget to take "before" photos when I redo something. Also, I find a lot of time my smart phone photos really aren't good quality. However, that's the only camera I have right now. Ugh. xoA Joyful Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08604235087317891071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6181382386833074929.post-57399413925002402182017-05-25T13:11:27.465-07:002017-05-25T13:11:27.465-07:00Super-cute!!! I followed your link to the aprons ...Super-cute!!! I followed your link to the aprons too, and they are so stinkin' cute too! I was just sitting here complaining to hubby that I just don't have any desire to do the things I usually love. No crochet, no books, no blogging or video, no baking, etc. All I want to do is sleep. I slept nearly all day yesterday and then all night too. I have nothing to be depressed or stressed about, but that's always what I do when I'm either of those things...sleep and more sleep. I'm thinking I'm just plain lazy right now.

But you had fun and made a darling gift and no doubt she'll get many compliments. All wonderful. Ask her to ask a friend ..with a different camera..to take a photo of her with the new bag. Great gift! Michele Bilyeuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15979296861999606692noreply@blogger.com
