I'm only energetic when it comes to sewing.. the rest of my house, I ignore!! And my energy one comes in spurts! a little here, a little there.

Maryq have you ever seen a clean house listed as a survivor in the the obs? NO. You see that the person was giving, loved to sew, but never did it say she left behind a clean house to remember her fondly!!!

Creative women have cob webs in their corners, but not in their minds.

I love the bags. What pattern do you like to do the most?

Great Bags - Is that the Gracie pattern?

I only have the 1 tote bag pattern. And for the life of me I can't remember the name of it. I don't think it's a Gracie pattern tho. Lazy girl design maybe. I've made it so many times now I've lost count. You start with 14" squares, but to make the elephnant one I started with 9" squares. The pattern is actually confusing so I just do it the way that works for me!

I should have taken more pictures of the ones I made. The one I made for QuiltFlorida was some pretty blue fabric I had! Haven't made one for myself yet. Made 3 for some of the young girls at work, and this weekend at the cabin I'm going to whip one up for a gal at work--her granddaughter age 10!

If I don't quit making tote bags, I'll never get any real quilting done!
