Design wall Monday
Monday, September 6, 2010 at 6:17AM Shame on me for even working on something upstairs in my sewing room, when I have two quilts waiting to be quilted downstairs! I’m actually feeling a bit quilted out, and so I am going to work on other things for awhile until I get back in the groove again… that is, after I finish those two quilts!
;)
Yesterday I started on a purse, and will finish it up this morning. This is another “Margo” handbag by Lazy Girl Designs.
I weed whacked and mowed the yard yesterday, and flecked the smoked chickens and made broth which I left to simmer overnight, I’ll let it cool down this morning and then I’ll freeze it. This afternoon we’re joining a couple of our neighbors and cranking ice cream, I hope it doesn’t get too hot outside!
Head over to Judy’s and see what everyone else is up to this week!

Sounds like you have a wonderful day planned. Have fun!
LOVE the print of the bag! Will have to check out her designs!
A friend just showed me the Margo bag she made--love it. I always make a larger version of Lazy Girls "the Town purse" but I make it about 2" bigger all around and add the back 1/2 pocket that's on the "City Bag", also a Lazy girl pattern! I call it the burg bag.
I'm going to make Margo soon.
You're fabric is fabulous. I should have someone else pick mine, I always like the fabric choices of others for their bags better than mine.
Have fun!!!!
Wow, CJ! LOVE that bag fabric!! We've got a little fall teaser going on outside...54 this morning on the deck... YUM!! Polly
I get like that about quilting sometimes too - just have to take a break from it now and then.
Nice morning but I think our cool spell is about over.

That pattern is on my list! I love her designs. Your fabrics are great. Now I'm wanting to make a trip to town.......what's with that!!
I know what you mean about being 'quilted out'. I can sew for hours and days at a time like it's oxygen then, poof, the mood is gone and I don't work on anything for a week.
Hand cranked Ice cream! YUM!
I love Lazy Girl designs! That looks like fun fabric for a purse.
That is one of the great things about quilting as a hobby because you can shop, or cut fabric, or piece or applique, or quilt by hand or machine...there is a task to suit every mood!
