It's in the Bag!

 Reverse sides of the bag
 Little purse to go inside the bag

 The frogs are dancing because I finished the bag.
Not in order, for sure - The inside of the little purse to go into the big work of art tote.
The bag is finally done, and I can go on to other things!  Ann used her influence to help me discover the fantastic web site of Crabapple Hill Studios, located in eastern Washington State.  She made a quilt top last winter, called "Over the River and Through the Woods." that had lots of embroidery on it.  We are re-discovering this relaxing art!  Anyway, this tote was pointed out to Judy and me, and I asked Louise to check it out.  She opted out of the project, but Judy and Ann are making their own version of the tote.  I went first, and wish that mine were bigger, but I am finding out that it holds more than I thought it would.  What satisfaction to finish this project successfully and end up with something that you couldn't buy.
