How sweet it is to have a billion things all having to be done at once, all happening at once, and managing to get them all done at once......LOL! well, not sure about the done all at once but certainly getting through my massive work load without having a severe mental breakdown...hahahahaha!! Must be my new exercise plan, that is still going strong..........hehehehehe. I am going great guns and doing a yoga class tomorrow morn at 7.15am if you fancy joining me. Better wear a Tena Lady, it can get quite comical! LOL......
How sweet it is to have "Christmas Candy" available to make right now with this month's issue of "Homespun" magazine. I was asked to contribute and happily did so by designing a bit of Christmas Candy for ya all!
You get in the magazine the bag and a little matching coin purse. catherine Sanchez, the Editor of Homespun rang me the other day to chat about magazine and to let me know that it is going "Digital". Yep, digital. What that means is that you will still be able to purchase your copy of the magazine in hard copy. So you can do the touchy feely thing over a cuppa and have it for a keepsake but for you can also subscribe to having it delivered via the net. This is optional but for our international readers this is ideal due to shipping costs and so forth. So you will be hearing more about this in the very near future.
Just a bit of quick show n tell. The lovely Liisa (with 2 "i's) from The Quilters Corner has made some samples of my Lou Lou bag and I had to share.
I adore the 3 versions. The bright pieced one, the evening one and one made out of just one fabric looks gorgeous!! If you have the Lou Lou pattern, perhaps try making one out of just one fabric. Now that's a quick easy project!!
Have you made a "Lou Lou" bag??? If so you simply must share....OKAY!! :)
Sew until next time......
How sweet it is "in stitches"
LOVE the new pattern in Homespun... very cute.

Love the bag and coin purse. I'm very excited to hear that Homespun is going digital. I really love this magazine but it arrives in the US well over a month late - it goes to Canada first. I also try to order 2 months at a time to save on postage. So...a digital issue would be ideal! I suspect there will be more people in the states who will be interested in the magazine for the same reason.

Haven't visited in a long time but glad that I did today. Love all these bags especially the "Christmas Candy" bag and the first sample of the Lou Lou bag. Very nice and cheery.
Have a super great sewing and stitching day.
