It's so nice this time of year . On Air Con. or heat needed. Over the week end I did a apron for my DS Sue. I hope she likes it . She loves pink . The print fabric has shades of pink but I pulled the blues out with the buttons. I didn't have pink buttons.
I made this shoulder bag a little larger than the others . I had this quilt block left over from a quilt I made years ago. it was time to give it a home. The quilt I made went to Waco, TX. A few years ago.
My DGD Kristin went for a internship there for a month 2 Summers ago. She stayed with a lady there and it was a thank you gift to her for housing Kristin while there. The bag is 9" X 11". A nice size for shopping. Not to heavy. It will hold billfold and keys and what you need while shopping.

Sister Donna's Birthday gifts and bags for craft show's.
My DS Donna's birthday is Oct. 2 so I made her a few things. She is a sewer of clothing for things they participate in. I made her a thread catcher, a pin c., and apron. I love the batiks I used in the TC. I all most kept it for me! But Donna's color is blue where mine is green.
DD Jennie and I have been working on shoulder bags for craft shows. These are bright and for the younger people or the young at heart! The flip flop bag is my favorite one.

Bibs and aprons
Jennie made baby bibs and I made burp clothes the other day. No I didn't take a photo of the burp cloths. We are making more.
Aprons and more aprons We make these from men's shirts that we buy cheap at thrift stores and other resale shops.
Jennie was taking a break.
