Doesn't feel like much, but...

I spent much of the last couple of weeks doing class prep.  I have yet to figure out how to teach a project without making at least part of a second one.  And yet, by doing this, I can spend a whole afternoon in the sewing room and have nothing to show for it at the end of the day.
This is the "story board" for my next class, using the "Posey Tote" pattern, from This and That designs.  It works very well with the squares in my Scrap Therapy bins!  The part at the bottom is the assembled bag half. Easy peasy!

I did get a new case made for my camera this week- to accommodate the extra battery I finally got around to buying!

This was made from one of the demo pieces I did for my paintstik class last summer.  I just added some of my favorite quilting patterns.  This case is my own design- custom made for each camera!

I also finished my new tote bag just in time to take along to Lancaster next week!
This is the "Tabitha Tote" from Serendipity Studios. 










I am grateful for:
My art group, for their inspiration and the laughter we share!
The return of some of the summer birds to my yard!
Not having to bundle up so much to go outside today.
Sleeping better.
Being in a comfortable rut!
