Hi Ladies. I have been kind of quiet lately, dealing with a lot at home. My father went to the emergency room 2 weeks ago with severe stomach pain. They have since done an gastro scope and found a large tumor blocking the exit to his stomach. He's meeting with a surgeon today, and we have an oncologist but haven't met him yet. But the pathology report is good, the type of cancer he has is easy to treat with a 50-75% five year survival rate, for which I am thankful. Those who are on my facebook, please don't mention there. Those of you who have facebook and want to friend me, profile is Becky Galambos. I'm getting things together for my partner and will post some clues for her soon!

Well, I have my secret pals. I am so excited!
#1- It's me again! Your name has 8 different letters in it. Homemade is coming your way!
#2- I so wish you had filled out your list more. You like humming birds.

And here I was trying to identify the tartan itself!!! 
Yes quiltnut it is - the pattern is Bridget's Bagettes by Atkinson Designs. I used a 14/90 (can't remember which needle system you all use, lol). For the vinyl I increase my stitch length a little as I don't want to 'perforate' it.
This is the first one I've done on my Pfaff (been in the shop - long story) and have to say the built-in walking foot made a big difference. They slipped and stuck a lot on my Janome.
I actually spent more time lining up and cutting out the tartan than I did making the bag
The weave was 'off' by a good bit!

Well I have started picking up some things for my Sp's package and now that is done, I need to knocking the dust bunnies about so that I can decide if & what I might make to go in there with what I picked up today. So yeah hints are you might enjoy a homemade one of these but I do know that you would like one of these.
Tricia who is pondering that 8 letter clue.... is that real name or screen name?
