I haven't really ever been someone who sews, and only in the past two years have I taken up quilting... But today it happened. As I was looking at a tote bag I own, I was thinking 'I could totally make one of those'. OMW!! (oh my word) I never thought that would be me!! :-)

I do that all the time. In fact, most of the time when I'm out shopping I have a mini notebook with me to sketch all the things I like and could probably make myself.

I remember going out with a friend to see Toy Story 3 and we had some time to kill. So we to this store with real expensive clothes to window shop. I found this top that was in the clearence rack. It was basically a flimsy grey t-shirt with the hems cut off, cut down the middle, and the middle was replaced with a black zipper. They wanted like $20 for it...this was off the clearence rack! I told my friend "$20 for THIS? I could easily make this for under $10 AND in colors I actually like!"

I think I will be trying out making the tote... But my list of things I want to make just keeps growing and growing!! I guess I could spend time on worse things. :-)

For some reason, this feeling totally made me feel like 'I have arrived'. Lol. :-)
