doesn't look like much at the moment, but this is going to be a winter-themed tote bag for a swap. i didn't have to buy any fabric for this at all, shopped entirely from stash which is a VERY good thing! this was from a commercial pattern as i have NO design talent whatsoever. machine sewing is much easier for me right now than hand quilting, though i have done a bit of that this week for short periods of time. yesterday i spent doing some odd sewing including this piece, plus trying to get organized as to what to do next. i tend to work on several projects, meaning 3-4, at a time and with limited space that is not really practical. today i'll make a list so i can put away anything not currently needed and keep the small room from getting cluttered.....clutter drives me nuts! ***** have put the job situation at the back of my mind for now. have resigned to not getting my unemployment, which is very wrong, but it's something i cannot change. just waiting for november so i can close out my retirement account and have some cash for living expenses. until then, only moths in my wallet but the immediate bills are paid, so it's tolerable. ***** plenty of good sleep last night under my comfy quilts, which makes a HUGE difference in how i handle these situations. the glass is definitely half full today for that reason.
