Oh my I am reading Chooky's blog and I feel like I have missed the train! Dont cut me off Chooky! I'm here...alive and well and finished my tote in the nick of time! LOL....Thank God for 'time-zones'! I have a bit of an advantage living here in Canada...a few more hours to stitch!
I love my tote! I am very happy with how nicely it all came together. I saw this line of fabrics at my friends quilting store (Homespun Design http://homespundesigns.ca/ ), it's called Oasis.I had to have them....and they are blue! I will defenitly be in Chooky's good books. Not that I'm in her bad books but I am in the final hours of our 'dead-line'.
I am not so brilliant when it comes to the 'quilting' part so I simply did the crosshatch 'thing'. I like it. This fabric already had a lot of swirly doodles happening so I thought the plainer the better so the fabric can do the speaking. I also changed the wording on my bag. I hope that's okay?! I stitched the words....Live, Laugh, Love, Simplify. After it was all stitched I realized maybe the words were mixed up...should have been Live, Love, Laugh etc. Oh well, I dont think it really matters. On to March's assignment now. A lovely little pin cusion. Happy Stitching, Holly
