Miranda Day Bag


Here is my first foray into sewing something other than a quilt! My sister and I took a sewing class together that produced this as the final product. Pretty fancy shmancy I think... I take pride in the fact that I only made one error in cutting. I can't cut and talk at the same time...actually I cannot do ANYTHING and talk at the same time. I've been known to make baking, cooking, and sewing errors just about 100% of the time if I am carrying on a conversation simultaneously. You will never see me on a cell phone while driving!!! My kids know that they must play receptionist to me if I'm driving and my phone rings.

Well, I was talking to my sister when I sliced into my fabric 1/4 in too short!!! Thankfully, my instructor was able to help me make a repair and all is well. Anyway, back to my roomy, 10 pocket Vera Bradley almost lookalike bag - ta da!

Back into Quilting ..... sort of, and starting knitting soon!





I'm just posting a few pictures of projects that are actually finished or near finished. Because someone asked to see them (thanks Donna), I'm willing to show them off. Keep in mind that I haven't ventured to do anything complicated as I'm only in my 8th year as a beginner quilter.
