Finally a finish

Do you ever feel like it's been forever since you finished something? Even if it hasn't? I certainly do.

I made myself a commitment that I wouldn't buy anything more until I finished some of the tons of things I have around here already. So, I've been busy working on just that.

I recently finished this cute runner.




(Couldn't get it all in one picture.)

To hold my binding down while I stitched it, I used these cute little tiny clothes pins.



It wasn't what I bought them for. But, hey, necessity is the mother of invention.

Brand new bag



Mama's got a brand new bag.  I made it myself but that makes it better. Right?

Here it is in the process of being made....




How to finish it? Decisions, decisions.


I'm happy with the final product.



I used the this pattern. It's really easy to follow and makes a cute bag.
