Duffel bag and 2 Totes are done! The duffel bag is on my works in progress list needing to be finished. It only took 8 years to finish them. When I dug out the partially started
duffel bag I found that I had 2 tote bags cut out as well. So I just
finished them even though they do not count toward projects on my list.
It still feels great to have them completed after so many years. I
had them stored in an Office Depot file box in my closet that only
served to be a box to be moved when I wanted several boxes below it. Now
not only do I have a finished project I don't need the extra box to
shuffle past when getting to my other boxes.
The fabric was
purchased by a friend of mine who said I will buy enough for both of us
if you would make me the duffel bag. I made her duffel bag but not mine.
Now I will give her a call and deliver to her a tote bag to go along
with the duffel bag. I haven't seen her for a couple of years. She was
on staff with me at the pregnancy center but due to Multiple Sclerosis
she had to step down. She is a fighter working to walk again. I hope
this bag will bring a smile to her face.
This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. Psalm 118:24
Congrats on a couple of UFO's getting done! Even after all this time the fabrics are beautiful and I think your friend will really enjoy getting the extra bag!
ReplyDeleteThe beads on the duffle look lovely.
