Purse in a Day

Okay, so you can make it in a day if you are like me and become completely consumed by your sewing projects. I have been begging for sun, and when it finally comes out what do I do? Stay inside all day sewing. At least the door and windows were open. And I did go outside when a random parade went by (I think people in Newmarket are confused, Memorial Day was last weekend people!)  Here's another picture of the purse. I got the pattern and directions (which I loosely followed) at this website So thanks to Rae for letting people use her really cool pattern for free (my most favorite word!)
Lastly, here is a picture of a man playing the bagpipes in the parade today. He did an excellent job. I love bagpipe music. In case I haven't told anyone, I would like someone to play the bagpipes at my funeral. (I just wanted to have that documented in case something catastrophic occurs before I make time to create a proper will.)
Now I am off to read on the balcony. What am I reading you ask? A textbook EEEEWWWW!
