Finally a Pic


First I had to charge the camera and then had company with no time for computer fun. So here is the tote that I made for Feb. I did make a few changes to suit the person this will be going to. It is a little longer than the original and no pockets on the outside. I do plan to make another one for myself with a different stitchery as I really like the tote. Thank you Chooky for cheering us on and cracking the whip to get this finished. The funny part is I actually finished this a day earlier than I thought. Now to start on March's pin cushion.

Thank you ladies. I have had these fabrics in my stash for some time now and decided they would work well for the tote.
