    I made another tote bag last night, this is my third one now, and i even did pockets in this one. I was very frustrated doing it though, and am not happy with it. When i was doing my free motion quilting, the thread kept gobbing up underneath really bad. So it stayed that way, and of course with the lining nobody knows but me, but im really not happy that it did that. That's fine for a tote bag, but that means my next quilt project that might happen, and it hasnt happened on my other freemotion quilting, so another future headache i can see coming on.
    But i am happy that it in spite of my problems, it came out really pretty i think. I made it as a special gift. Yesterday when i was at the doctors, our receptionist told us that she was leaving, and that today would be our last day. She is a wonderful wonderful lady, and has been so kind and caring, so i wanted to make a special gift for her. So i made this bag, and we bought her a card and some flowers, and we took them in to her today, and she was so happy :) So i'm real glad that she liked it :)

    Barb, your bag is adorable and your feemotion quilting is terrific. I'm still struggling with it and usually do SID.
    Great job.
