pixiecrinkleI just finished my sister's birthday gift (a week early--new record for me!) It's kind of the Chinese Charm Bag from Stitch n' Bitch, but I basically read the pattern and just winged it so it's not quite the same size. My yarn is Lana Grossa Dito, which was on sale at my LYS.
I must say, I enjoyed getting out my sewing machine for the first time in ages to do the lining, but attaching the handles was no fun at all. I haven't had the sewing machine out for real since I made myself an apron for the North Market Apron Gala a couple of years ago. (It was choclate brown taffeta, as befits a fancy event.) I may actually try to do some sewing soon. I've got about four outfits worth of patterns and fabric that I bought well over a year ago (I took a Flash 5.0 class that day, so it had to have been a while ago.) that have been languishing in a cupboard ever since.
Also finished dad's Father's Day gift last week--a pair of Fuzzy Feet in Pine Green Lamb's Pride.
He's getting those when I go home for A's bday this weekend.

Bubble bath is calling my name now. And a glass of wine too. Hooray!
