Sweet Sewing

Woo hoo! I sold this bag. black striped purse The gal I sold it to works at the YMCA and she said that she could sell them for me if I can make a couple just like it. I guess I had better get busy! That purse was very nice because it had so many pockets and even a cell phone compartment. It is a little taller than the five red ones I made for the bridesmaids for my son and his fiance’s wedding.

There won’t be any sewing for me this weekend. We are going to our son’s fiance’s parent’s house to install carpet and then we are off to the horse races. Sunday is my birthday so this will be my birthday celebration. I am so excited!
