I am so excited to finally sew a little something for me--lol!
I made a little hobo type bag to tote books in to and from the library, mail to the post office, and patterns to the fabric store.

The most fun was embroidering it! :bg:

Excellent embroidery. And I can relate--It seems like I have to sit down and justify it when I want to make something for myself. My daughter will be pouting until I finish what I've started and move on to a project that's for her!

Thank you for all the kind compliments. :bg:
I took it to the post office today with the bad girls side out; but the veggie side out at the grocery store :smile:
I got the embroideries from the bad girls of sewing message board on the internet (biker chick)
and embroidery garden (chickie)
I just added the wording to the veggie side.
