Why you no blog?

Hey, I've been busy!!!

I've been "told" I'm in charge of the next sewing group, and we'll be making these awesome grocery tote bags. Saturday was a marathon cutting/sewing day - I cut out three bags, and assembled 1 3/4 bags, because I wanted a tangible example of the tricky parts, to show the students. Here is the finished project:



As I was taking this picture, Sunday morning, I decided the bag didn't look all that good just sitting on Alexia's high chair, so I called my son over to model it for me. The resulting pictures are posted here for your enjoyment:

I think Braden's embarassed holding his mommy's girlie bag!

Great picture of the bag, silly boy way of holding it...

Thank you, Braden, I see you've mastered how to make faces...

Finally, he understood I just wanted him to hold it out, so it would hang. Did you notice he's got his face turned away from the camera? I don't think he'd be doing that if I had made the bag from dinosaur material!!

I'm keeping these pictures for the blackmail, oh, I mean the memory potential. Yes, I'll be scrapbooking these sometime for future generations...or at least a really good time when my son's future financee is looking through the family albumns....
