Time Has Been Flying!

Has it taken wing for you too?  :-)

My sewing machine has been humming along and I have 2 finished bags, but can only show you one at this time.

It was a really quick and easy bag to sew, but looks difficult~ doesn't it?


There are no inside pockets and one outside pocket. I usually carry things in my purse in pouches that I can move from one bag to the next, so the inside absence of pockets didn't bother me~ it made the pattern faster to sew. Of course you could always add a couple pockets if you need them.  

I got to spend the weekend with my DD and her family. We made stuffed kitties for my darling 3 month old granddaughter. 

I embroidered her initial on one. They are made of flannel and so soft.
We got some cute pix of her holding them. :-)  The pattern is from McCall's.
 
I have a couple quilts in the works. This is the beginning of the Olivia Quilt by Kitchen Table Quilting.  
 
 I am doing a sew along with friends and the I have my first step nearly finished already. We are doing one step from the pattern every two weeks, so everyone has plenty of time to sew, and enjoy the process. ;)  I am making this one for my 2 yr old DGS. 

I am also really excited about a sew along Kelli from 'Seriously, I think it needs stitches' is doing. It is a Harry Potter quilt! :)  The first block will be posted on Saturday.   Are you doing any sew alongs this year? Please tell me about them in the comments~ I think I could add one more... maybe. ;)
 
That is all for now~
until next time,
Happy Stitchin'!!

The purses are beautifully made and fun prints.
Those kitties are adorable, it is fun to make for the grandkids, I need to work on some designs for the boys.

Who knew that having a Halloween Hop last week would bring the chilly weather?! We had rain, wind--- the power even went out for a few hours...
