You've had more than life usually offers in two years so don't beat yourself up. Sorry for your loss and glad you are back in the swing. Your bag has a very professional appeal with its striking graphic print. I have a similar barrel bag pattern with all the needed supplies sitting in my sewing room dresser and except for cancer last year have no excuses. Other projects just became more appealing to do for gifts or charity or home. One of these days. Unfortunately I have a lot of way laid projects and continue to buy more that strike my fancy. Doing better at finishing some, but it is a long journey ahead. Any others in the same boat?

Thank God we were given another nearly 2 1/2 years together instead of the original 3 months given by doctors 😢 and now after lots of ups and downs I slowly get the strength, pleasure and energy to look through all those projects and picking up where I had left off. In between I also make little quilted presents for friends and family, baby quilts, charity patchwork projects and keep my mind occupied 😍 Wishing you all the very best of health and energy to keep up what gives you the sunshine in your days 💞
