At least with it buttoned shut it would be a little more secure. And if it doesn't work well enough, send it to my house. I'll be thrilled to take it off your hands!! ;-)<br /><br />I'm envious of you getting to go to Tat Days again. Sending a virtual hug and hi to everyone who will be there! [waving].

It will be a hit at Tat Days :-)<br />I used to have the same issue with my cooking - watched shows on the tele and they made it seem to quick. But I would end up spending hours in the kitchen (to my DH's horror). Turned out all the prep work required (and later the dishes & utensils to be washed) took way more time - washing, cleaning, chopping, picking out ingredients, etc. etc. Much wiser now ;-Pmuskaanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13125166115615109271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8857704024517273961.post-20915071486725945552017-09-05T07:42:10.925-05:002017-09-05T07:42:10.925-05:00Your bag looks great!!! :)

When daughter Carol was a junior in high school, I was co-sponsor of the junior class and was required to attend prom. The morning of prom, Carol told me my chosen dress was inappropriate. I pulled out some fabric from my stash, cut out a dress before school, came home and sewed the dress in time to wear it for prom. I thought the dress took me about an hour to make when I decided to start... wrong! It took me two hours just in sewing time! Luckily, I made it to prom on time, and Carol was not embarrassed by my choice of dress. :-)Lace-lovin' Librarian ~ Dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06032689683092213368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8857704024517273961.post-32072458789479491812017-09-05T05:12:31.111-05:002017-09-05T05:12:31.111-05:00It's been a long time since I've made a ba...It's been a long time since I've made a bag.
