I've lost the month of May.

As usual i had big sewing plans & as usual very little was done. All i have to show are 2 finishes. I had started putting together the bag for the Stitch A Long nearly 2 weeks ago & had gotten to the bag handles when my daughter asked if i'd like to go shopping. Well i chose shopping as i really didn't want to work on the bag anymore & there it sat until yesterday as time was running out.
My finished bag. I was debating whether to do the back like in the pattern & in the end i did.
The back of the bag has a gap cut into it & yes it has a Purple lining. :) My other finish is for 1 Xmas Item, late i know as it was supposed to be posted on the 25th.
A table mat from Gail Pan's Christmas book. I also completed 2 more stitcheries from "Christmas" banner.
only 2 more to do & i can mark that as finished.

Happy Stitching,

#4 Chookshed Stitchers Challenge.

 At the start of March i had this pile of blocks. I couldn't get my head around how to turn all these differing block sizes into a quilt...
