Snow Day of quilting - What FUN!

I've had 2 days off from work due to snow days! Yippee!
I've spent them organizing the Groovy Girl Sewing Club that I'm teaching
at Quilter's Stash and doing some preparing for my next quilt retreat next weekend!!
I love spending time in my quilting room and looking out at all of the snow
(about a foot of new snow!)
I seem to get lost in my own little quilty world - which brings me to the picture  above.
The picture above is from Minnie's Sewing room in Disney World - my daughter
was there on a field trip a few years ago and snapped this pic with her cell phone!
"It made me think of you Mum"!
I love it - it's whimsical - and reminds me that quilting is a world
where I can loose myself in my creations!
Hope everyone has fun creating in there quilting world of whimsy!

Back to Bag Making!

It has been a bit since I've made any bags - but this one, from Terry Atkinson's
Groovy Girls Sewing Club, was a dream to whip up!
I'll be introducing it at my favorite local quilt shop Quilter's Stash 
in December during Demo Day!
It's a great roomy shopping bag that folds up to almost nothing!


It measures 12" x 7" x 12" and stands up nice and straight, then with a few folds it compacts down to this...

I think I'll make a bunch and use them when I grocery shop!!
