It's a lovely spring day here in England. Very warm for the time of year and I am now thinking what can I carry my sunglasses plus other bits and pieces around in as I will no longer be wearing a winter coat with deep pockets!
So today I picked up the purse I started making last year.
I'm making it up as I go along.
On the front some simple embroidery, Suffolk Puffs and a few hexagons.
There is an elasticated pocket for mirror or notes and a pen pocket inside (sorry no picture).
Initially I was going to finish it in the same way as the tiny purse (ie stab-stitch round 3 sides) but now I have decided to add an oval base - just testing here to see how it will fit.
Have you had time to make anything over Easter?
Bye for now, Barbara xx

Such a sweet little bag - and very useful too. I spent my weekend working on 'The Quilt-zzzzzz' - very boring (at least to me!) sane quilt that I've been asked to make.
I like the embroidery on your purse. No embroidery for me this Easter, I started a new knitting project.
You are making very short work of your quilting. Well done Mary-Anne. I have a quilt I started about six years ago, and its not going anywhere at the moment.
Thank you for your comment, Annet. What are you Knitting? I am posting an update on my knitting in a day or so.
I started a top for myself, but there's not much progress yet. I had to do some reverse knitting!
