one bag


the bag.


i have had a headache thats been following me around for days. grrrrrr.

went to wimbledon today, bought a pretty cath kidston purse. was extremely restrained, i went in for one item and came out with one. rosy was allowed into the shop, which is a pleasant surprise, id sneaked her in before this time asked apparently its a dog friendly shop.

been making some christmas decorations, a christmas pudding, some dangly sparkly drops. i tried to upload or is it download a video yesterday, didnt work of some squarking parrots in dulwich park. will try again soon.

Em that is just gorgeous! :):)

Did you use a pattern to make that bag? I stopped doing cross stitch because I ended up rolling them all up inside a tea towel and stashing them in a drawer. There are only so many pictures you can hang or cushions you can make! Never thought of being that clever and personalising a little bag. It's lovely! Really neat stitching too x

I'm inspired!

hi steph

sadly i cant do cross stitch no more my eyes ache so, i did what you did a number of years back and stashed them in a draw. i felt a bit guilty, so i took a couple out and made them into bags. glad i did know. although i so hate parting with them, its fine if i know from the start that they arent going to be mine. i need to let go.

i didnt use a pattern, laid the material out on the table and decided then and there. now that i cant do things all at once, i tend to fiddle around more. thanks. x
