I finally finished that sweet little Pineberry Lane October 31 design into a little pouch!
I used fabric glue to secure the binding, since hand sewing didn't go well at all. And I also used the glue to make the bias for the handle. It worked out pretty good. It sure isn't perfect, but it's done! I like this design so much I might have to stitch it again for a frame.
I added some more rows to my crochet dresser mat. I am loving it!
A smal stitchy update. I have only taken a few minutes here and there to work on it.
The weather here has been absolutely beautiful. I cannot overstate that! It is REALLY finally Autumn in VA. I want to be more present in my daily life this month and really drink in everything about the season. I want to try and meditate for 5 to 10 minutes every evening or during the day if I break from work. I plan to eat all the seasonal fruits I can. And I plan to stitch more, and try to relax more. With everything happening in this country, I need to step away from the news and turn on my Fall or Halloween playlist and just chill out. I need to take more photos too. I have slacked off from Project Life for the past couple/few years, and would like to get back in to it at some point. So much to think about and do. I should have plenty to keep me busy over the next few months, at least!
I hope you all find lots of little pleasures in life this month and find some ways to appreciate what we have and plan for the future, whether that is tomorrow, next week, next year or beyond. Take care of yourselves! Thank you for checking in on my blog. I really appreciate it.
Until next time,
Your bag turned out so nice, love the added touch.
ReplyDeletePretty dresser mat!
After a week of darkness & rain, this week is supposed to be sunny & more Fall like.
Take care.

Thank you Marilyn! Have a wonderful week!
DeletePerfect finish on the pouch! Love that little crochet dresser mat too! I plan on slowing down and enjoying every second of this glorious season as well... it's just too pretty and cozy to let it slip right on by without full appreciation! :-)

DeleteExactly! Thank you so much! Have a great week!
DeleteYour bag finish looks super, Tammy. Way to go! The little puffy crochet flowers are adorable. I have been enjoying the beautiful weather that we have been having. I have reduced the amount of news that I watch (local news only and just long enough to get the weather) and find my mental well being is much better. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteThanks Robin! Yes, reducing news does help! You have a great week too!
DeleteTorba jest świetna, a szydelkowy płeć wygląda bardzo ciekawie.
