Phew. We just got back from our month long trip exploring the Caribbean Islands. You should see my tan. NOT. We’re actually still freezing our butts off in the same old spot. Got teased by a little warmth and then back to frozen. I’m still winter white with dry skin like no other. I’m honestly not sure what the heck I’ve been doing all this time!
I made a couple new things though. Like this little lady.
And a few little somethings for the pooches.
Meet Sox everyone. That’s my friend Ellie’s dog. What a cutie. Even better with a little designer “cowl.” I also love the blurry owl hanging out in the background. Our house is hysterical right now.
I’ve made a couple different bag styles. This one is equiped with grommets and ties.
This one has a little drawstring action. I love this bag, but you should’ve been here when I was making it. What a joke. I’m not sure if someone slipped some sort of drug into my drink or what but I kept making the weirdest mistakes. I thought I was doing so well. The best one by far is after sewing on the little casing that the ties go through, I opened the bag to find that I sewed all the pockets shut. Good thing the kids were already in bed.
Sorry I don’t have much more to share. I did make a bunch of things but I don’t have pics yet. I have a show this weekend that I am completely not prepared for. I have to admit that I have been a bit overwhelmed the past couple weeks. Not sure why, but I’m gonna put myself together soon.
Hope everyone has a fabulous week!
You have been busy and it all looks lovely! Especially hat last bag...love it. Good luck at the show:)

Stunning projects! I'm in awe over the dolly you made! The pup is absolutely too cute especially with the little cowl.

I so know what you mean about making dopey mistakes. I made flannel PJ pants this week and had to rethread the darned elastic twice because I wasn't paying attention. Good thing there weren't any students in my office. Lots of bad words were said under my breath...Love the bags and especially that adorable doll.
