It's sad for me to keep it...I divorced my husband after 32 years so the big "E" monogram is no longer mine. :( The woes of menopause possessed my mind and body. Guess that's another thread :)

Last Christmas I asked my newest DIL to make me a Bow Tucks purse. I gave her the pattern, fabric and told her how I wanted it. I told her this is what I want, I don't have time to make one and I don't need anything else. She made it and filled it with goodies- fat quarters, marking pencils, etc. Love it! I carry it to work every day with my "stuff" in it. (I have 2 purses too- one with the necessary garbage, 1 small one for "looks" that holds my wallet and keys- I am a bag lady)
I should take a pic of it...
(oh, she also used the pattern to make her Mom, Gram, Aunt and herself bags. Love her!)
This year she's making throws- I told her to shop in my stash first!
