Another Bag

I do not blog that often then when I do I do not seem to have much to put on but I have been busy  sewing.
This week I made a bag, black and patterned the pattern is The New York Skyline I loved it as soon as I saw it and the bag was so simple to make, might have to do another one. When I was at Poppy Patch for sit and sew last week I made the mug rug and bag I did do other sewing as well!  Sewing in mty workroom today was lovely with the sun streaming in and when I looked up i looked straight at the hanging basket with the lovely pansies in, hooray summer may just be on its way....

Another week

Where do the weeks go? I do not believe the saying that when we get older we do things at a slower pace, I think we are just doing so much more of the things we enjoy doing now we are retired, anyway we had a lovely walk over Irthlingborough meadows and lakes last week still needed the wellies but roll on summer!!!
  Made another cushion for my grandson this time, just love the loose ears on the doggies and it is the absolute image of their dog. Also the green and cream piece was my project for Higham Piecemakers challenge, we had to blindly pick three paint color cards and make something matching fabric to the paint cards, quite challenging but enjoyable.
  Well have just finished all the housework I am doing for today so can now go sew without guilt ....
