A little bit tender at the moment and oh boo hoo-- no vacuuming or ironing allowed for 6 weeks yahoo! oh and a lot of chocolate gifts to eat.....
anyway, the important stuff, my handbag has died, its my favourite , the best handbag I have ever owned, thank you marks and spencer, but all the beads and sequins are dropping off, its had several running repairs, but now I need a new one, preferably lime green and purple[ to match my intended new bras]
so, found a pattern I like.constructed two pieces of wonky log cabin patchwork and added a backing and wadding
and some great threads.I have drawn the actual bag pattern over the patchwork so I can stitch and embellish up to about half an inch of the edge, I have some sequins and beads and I am just going to stitch away
