Bats!

Son Dave's girlfriend asked me to make her a bat purse for Halloween.  I suspect it's partly because they live in Austin, Texas, the city of the bats.  She sent me a picture she found on the Internet.  I hunted for quite a while to find a pattern, but I finally just drew it freehand.  It was pretty fun to make!

If you look closely at the lower left hand of the picture you can see Chloe photobombing.  That girl is such a ham!

A Purse

I just listed a purse in my shop.  I bought one of those designer handbags from work, one of the ones that was supposed to be so handy.  I just don't like it-if you put all your stuff in it, it bounces off your body just like a basketball.  So I made a new one for myself and a spare for my shop.

I can't wait to use my bag to carry my "work stuff."  My old designer bag didn't even have space to tuck your water bottle, or a snack.  This one is extremely roomy.  Check it out!
