I love explaining myself. I must. Why else would I wait so long to post? Why else would I sew a few purses together in a mad rush? I don't know. Does inspiration hit me all of sudden? I day dream about what to sew together. Sometimes Vera Bradley is in my daydreams. She looks a lot like Jacob Marley. But she always critiques my stitches. Which makes me critique hers when I am out and about. Lo and behold, her stitches aren't perfect - nor are mine. Then I want to reach out and say to the lady with that bag. " I could've hooked you up much cheaper." Which, see, then I can explain myself again! Circle of life baby.
Had a brush with infamy this week. Two people were in line at the local Chipoltle - each had an edition of my purse. No one told me if they compared stitches, but I am thinking they didn't. Neither one of them like explaining themselves and they like me - so they extolled my sewing virtures. I was just glad to hear they were both carrying one of my bags 3 months later!
Have put together a bag you will see that I totally copied from *mixieblue*. Had to add those star things so I don't have to pay her infringement penalties. She doesn't make and sell the bags anymore, but I continually hear there is a need for them so today, I created one and it looks decent. I need a label. I just can't committ. Anyway . . .this may be my fortune. Or at least Christmas money.
Take care, let me know if you need a new fall bag. I am all in on that one!
