Love your tote and checkbook cover, I know your niece will love them. Hope the butterfly hanging does the trick for you. I know I am ready for spring and summer. I make totes myself, and it takes me five hours to quilt the fabric, and five hours to make the tote. I haven't made a quilt pattern in my tote, I just quilt two pieces of fabric and batting together, and make it that way. Most of the time I have Horses, wolves, flowers, and other things in the fabric. Great job, and keep up the good work.
