We were 8 ladies strong at Wonky Bits today. We even had a past member pop in for a very short visit... It was nice to have seen her again... I looked to see if I had a photo of her one claim to quilting, but was not successful. I think that was during pre-digital camera times for me... She made a lovely Red Hat Ladies Sampler quilt. A queen sized, all pieced and quilted by hand... It was lovely...
It was great seeing you again D! 8-)
This is the finished result of Kn's bag from the X-Bag workshop we had a while back. Looks great K! 8-)

The gals are doing the prep work for an Envelop Bag workshop we are doing in September. I had made one a while back, you can see it here.
Pg brought this one she made around 20 years ago to show us. I like her's much better. Not as bulky and stiff as mine, as they did not use batting in them at her workshop... This one is great! The flaps drape much nicer, and it has some sort of snap closure across the full center opening... Something that you find few and far between these days apparently. Anyway, in the 20 years that Pg has had her lovely bag she has never used it, thus she passed it on to me! What a gift! Thanks P! Love it! I will use it! 8-)

Here is the rest of the rows of Pg's (posted yesterday) class project (Criss Cross 2) from yesterday... We were all puzzling over why it wasn't working out, and finally found the 2 sections that got switched around in the process... Funny how these things seem to be more noticeable in photo, than on the floor... You have to be careful when using directional focus fabrics with this pattern too... Love it Pg!!! 8-)

the only message I got while reading was subliminal - get back to sewing, get back in your room, stop looking and start doing.... Over and over!! If you can get that to stop, I would appreciate it!!

Love and hugs Gina xxx
Hi Myra
That bag is absolutely gorgeous. Love the colours, how kind of her to give you such a lovely pressie.
I've been getting a weird message about your blog whenever I tried to access it. I couldn't get your email to let you know.
Today I got into your blog and got your email. I'll send you a jpeg of the message I kept getting.
whooo I love your bag, what a great gift and I do love your show and tell,lovely photos. Im still stitching my cats which is taking a long time but all will be worth it in the end.
Heya - I didn't fall off the planet, really! Just been buried with school and work. I love the quilts and the bags! Your blog is a great inspiration. Squeeze those girlie pugs for me!
Thank you for the show and tell.
