I know you're shocked I have got some more finishes but hey don't get used to it because it is about to come to an end for a bit...........I am not the kind of person that works on something til it is done and then starts another one...........I don't even want to think how many projects are in various stages............I have lots of projects on the go though............if I don't like what I am working on I can just move onto something else.............
The lovely Cardygirl sent me this pattern Nellie's Sewing Bag because apparently I didn't see any of these bags at GDITC this year............I must have had my eyes shut.........lol.......to busy chatting probably...........another Rosie project..........
also teamed it with a Anni Downs Hatched and Patched needle case
I love this stitchery..............it is from her book "The World as it Should Be" and called My World Needle case............now Anni warns in the directions it is difficult to turn the needle case thru because of the stiffer interfacing but persist.........well Anni persist I did and it was difficult but so worth while in the end........the stiffer effect is great..........
I think most of the fabrics are from the Chocolat range..............
another gift for a friend that i didn't want to part with...........lol.............
Take Care til next time..............

PS I know I know I have been doing lots of Rosie and Anni at the moment..........but I am loving it...........

SO cute Donna -- I love it!
You sound like me. One hundred jobs on the go at once. We are never bored. Lovely work.
You work like me! I am always thinking about/ and or starting something new.
I assure you those bags were at Girls Day out. I remember seeing them - but I already owned the pattern ( from last year) and so I guess I was aware of what they are. You know, one of those things where you think you have never seen something and then when you know about it they seem to be everywhere.
Of course though I haven't made it yet - so you are one ahead of me. They certainly look great so i might just have to move it up the list of things I want to make.
The needlecase is really nice too.
Love Nellie's bag...glad to see you love it too. All your finishes are great...we all have far too much on the go, it makes life "fun"...see you soon!
They look great Donna, keep up the momentum!!
Wow...love your work!! Both the bag and needle case are beautiful Well Done!..I also love Chocolat..one of my favourite ranges!! HAve a great week, Cathyxx
Lucky friend! I really like the needlecase in the redwork, and the chocolat fabric is as yummy as it's name.
Congratulations on two great finishes! Love them both. The stitchery is just so darling...
Love the bag and needlecase!
UFOs....who doesn't have them! I'm with you....start something, don't like or get bored...start something else.
sounds like a plan to me.

No wonder you want to make a lot of Rosie and Annie project, they have such wonderful things. Love your new bag. A great size to bring your sewing in. Never seen that pattern before either. Perhaps it is not in sale yet??
Well done!! Loved the way your projects turned out. The needlecase does look very nice, can only "image" how it feels.
Good on you for sticking with that needlecase - it's so pretty!!
It's a lovely bag!
Great!

I love your bag and needlecase! I totally understand how you didn't want to part with them.... happens lots here!!
Hi Donna, these look really lovely, I don't doubt that you are really happy with them, and like you, always have several projects on the go, wouldn't have it any other way!
Great finishes and great fabric choices!
I love your bag. Just like you I have projects in many different stages.
oh yes, this is just beautiful. I too am a "hatched and patched" fan - I did the wool felt bag and just love it to bits. Also love the saying - so true, as we are so tied up with the modern world these days, that its nice to appreciate how simple life would be if it was as per the lovely stitchery. well one could only hope and it is very inspirational and keeps the smile on the face.
Hello!! Beautiful bag!! Regards for you and good weekend!!!
I Don't Think You are Alone there...we all think that way otherwise we would get Bored...it's the creativity in Us..Lovely Bag & Needlecase...
what's Next.?

I am super impressed with your finishes! Love both of them especially the needle case! (and the name of the fabric 'Chocolat'!!)
Just lovely-you have been very productive
Rosalie and Annie always create gorgeous projects, I can't resist them either!
Your's look gorgeous!
Darling!
I am loving that bag. Thinking I might need to buy that pattern. Love the needlecase to. I also have that book and am current making the applique cushion - one of my many works in progress!!!!
Quilter's A.D.D., Gardener's A.D.D, Horseman's A.D.D. although the one redeeming point here to be made Lol :0)
Variety is the Spice of Life !!!
However could do with just a pinch of that stuff called TIME to go with all that variety...
The saying on the needlebook is great.
It looks lovely!
Oops! That 'Mark' above is me (didn't realise my DH was signed in LOL)
Just beautiful Chooky!!
Love the fabric. Will have to keep a look out for that pattern.
Love the bag and contents - lucky recipient!!!! She showed it off today to me and co:))
