    Piddlin

    I found this adorable "medical" fabric at Wal-Mart on sale. It was wider than usual and NOT cotton but I bought it anyway. Now what could I use it for????? Since I didn't want to clean or anything actually useful, thought I would use my favorite nurse as a guinea pig. I used the "Sweet Retreat's Little Sister" pattern by Whistlepig Creek Productions. Added a little checkbook cover in the pocket, even had a blank register so you could tell what it was for. Gave it to her yesterday, she loved it!!

    What a great bag! I think I am going to break down and buy a bag pattern--so far I've made 6 or 8 mostly "out of my head". Thanks for sharing.
    God Bless,

    Oh Oh better be careful or you are going to be getting lots of requests And so much better than cleaning - which by the way may I remind you the dust will only return

    Well, gee! Who WOULDN'T love it! You did a wonderful job and it looks like she should enjoy it for many years to come!

    Of course she loved it, it's wonderful! Yes, I hope you bought a lot of fabric, because her friends at work will want them too. I should also be cleaning. It's raining, so I can't "waste" any time in the garden today. 8)

    I like it - bet a lot of people will ask her where she got it.

    Thank you for mentioning what pattern you used.

    Love the colors you used for it.

    Wasn't expecting to see a bag, though, from the title!
