    after working on my black and white blocks all day yesterday, I wanted to be a little more creative today, so dug out a kit I bought a year or so ago. I pretty much bought it just for the handle, their fabrics were very old fashioned and not my cup of tea. So I substituted my own choices and made this.....




    It's not sitting particularly well on the desk, but you get the idea!

    That is sooooo adorable! (And, your hubby is a smart man. My hubby also makes helpful suggestions when I'm working on a piece. He's supportive, like your hubby, and the suggestions are mostly really good ones I don't think of, myself).

    It's one of his better suggestions! LOL

    I collect butterfly fabrics, I have quite a few, but this is the first time I've actually CUT into one! How bad is that! LOL

    We went out last weekend and I was surprised I didn't have a nice wee bag to pop my car keys and phone in. Now I do! :-)

    Wow BC....I love it! Didn't realize it was that small, but it is a tiny thing and sooo cute! I would have bought it just for that handle too!

    (Smacky kisses to your DH for being so smart!) :wink:
