Do you remember that piece of
embellishment I did with Will that looked like some sort of Dr Who costume? Here it is again, with french knots and beads and black velvet
sashing and
everything. And look now it has been joined by some glitzy log cabin work (my first attempt!) and it's own constellation of
sparkly bits. The bag is lined with the shot metallic-
ish fabric which I bought for £2 a fat quarter at New Year, hooray! The bag went together really well with a simple technique taught by Fay Maxwell on an embroiderers guild weekend I went on. I like this bag, but I have to say, I bloody hate
Bondaweb (used to bond calico to add rigidity to the log cabin side) and I don't like velvet crawling up and away from itself when your trying to sew it. Anyway another one for the stand at the market.

Your other half is a very lucky man to have such a talented woman in his life... and you can tell him I said so... also a good reason to get him to wear the 'mad' trousers.
