    It was probably New Years Eve for me. On August 28 there was a huge hurricane coming in and mom went in to hospital!

    Just checking in, seems like everyone is busy with outdoor activities or quilting projects and having fun at the same time.

    I'm busy with work, slowly enjoying sewing my quilt tops together, and playing with my 2 dogs. Quilting wise, I have 1 quilt top ready to be picked up tomorrow, 2 ready to get quilted and I'm starting on a doll quilt for my sister. Pics will come after they are quilted. This week I start working on my 2 Halloween themed swaps I joined from this board. I'm debating if I want to sign up for the leave swap. I'll see how my time goes.

    My squishy will be mailed next week, sometime. Well everyone have fun doing your summer activities. I'll be monitoring the site.

    Checking in! It's been crazy here, too, with craft fair season gearing up. I've been sewing quilted purses as fast as my sewing machine will go. Pedal to the metal! I'll get the birthday girl's candies in the mail in the next few days.

    You're right..,. it's made similarly, but different layout. SMS has some dark centers, creating stars. The other quilt is a bit different, tho they both have those little opposite snowballed corners.

    I can make it, I just wondered if it had a name. I'm sure I will find the proper name one of these days!

    I'd LOVE to see what your purses look like, if you can show us a picture or two...

    I snapped some pics yesterday to put on my Facebook page, so I lumped the individual pics into one combined picture (below - hope it's not too big). I'll have a lot more purses and other items made for my craft fairs, but here's what purses I've got made so far. (Sold 4 already just from my Facebook pictures! Woo hoo!)

    These are super cute! Love that minion fabric. My favorite of all is the gray striped one on the bottom row. Glad you are already selling them. Good luck!
