This is a tote bag I made today. It is was a kit that you cut out n sew together as the instructions were provided. This is one of the many projects that my mom left unfinished when she passed away in 2003. I have to say this particular project is maybe from 1998 or earlier. I did a good job. it took my about 3hours start to finish. I did have to stop and oil the machine n respond to my sisters texts. It worked out pretty good. This is the second project I have found and done start to finish.
I miss my mom a lot. Aug 20 is when she passed away and I still have problems. Some years it is easier than others. As I find these projects and finish them, I convince myself that it helps me be close to her, really taking care of my dad is what makes me still feel close to her every day. Awh, but the sun is shining stop with the melancholy. My mom would be proud, part of sewing the bag was making a box pleat and I did it once I stopped trying to figure it out.
