Ruffles, Lace and A Little Motrin!

Well, I have to tell you the day didn't start out the way I planned!

I decided I wanted to make myself a tote bag.

Good, fun idea right?

I headed into the room where my large boxes of fabric are stored, each one on top of the other.

To make a long story short.

I got the box of fabric I needed.

But when I started to put the last box (full of barkcloth)back on top I pulled a muscle in my back.

Oh, the pain!

Do big girls cry?

This one felt like it.

I didn't lift with my legs but my back, big mistake!

Motrin, is now my friend.

The nurse said it would take about two weeks before it felt better.

Two weeks, I don't have time for this!

I did manage to find the fabric I wanted and was able to sew up my tote.

It just went a little slower then it would normally.

I was in the mood for ruffles, old lace and whatever else I could think of.

This bag will be easy to clean.

I decided to add a different closure.

I wanted to add an old key to the bag, it just seemed to go together with the old lace.

The key will be easy to remove when the bag needs to be cleaned.

Thank you for stopping by!
