Thank you....

and so blessed!

Big thank you to Patti...Cherish Each Precious Day Blog... for the fabulous Susan Opal blog prize, I've never felt so lucky and now have so many choices to play with.

 I'm going to have a lot of fun with the grandkids crafting with all these goodies. 

 Grandma will be the new home school art teacher. 

Excited can't even explain how I feel, before...my stamps and dies, all fit into one little container which fit in my hands. I now...have many beautiful choices and can't wait to get busy!

Next....I had purchased this faux leather for a project that didn't work out, it was on sale clearance and cost me $3.00. Rather, than it just going unused....I decided to try making a bag.

 After watching a few YouTube videos, I decided to add two pockets to the inside lining and a magnetic clasp rather than velcro. 

Another accomplishment for me altering a pattern in anyway.

 I've been trying to grasp and learn sewing for a few years now and finally.....I might stand a chance lol.  

So...that's it for today...back to resting, blessings and hugs, Lori m
