tuesday already?

for someone who doesn't do very much, the days still manage to fly by somehow...so i try and keep busy doing fun things...few and far between these days. 

years ago made this purse for my mom....she has used it a lot and on my recent visit, replaced zipper but noticed it was nearly on life support...faded and fraying....so a new one is in the works using these fabrics...

shape is the same but design a bit different...the two are a perfect visual of how my style has evolved...and basting blitz continues but not at lightning speed.....the scrappy DWR is next with plenty of projects waiting for quilting ....

may is warming up here in the old line state...finally!  it's the month i miss my house the most because of all the flowers that bloomed in my yard....

dear daughter came monday for belated mother's day lunch and brought me a sweet figurine to express her devotion....nagging regrets of motherhood failures that would like to haunt me were derailed for the reality of being human and overwhelming pride in the woman she has become...

this week's plan?  more blocks for the secret project, the DWR baste, the antennae on the butterflies so that can be basted, the exercise and finally shorts all week!
