Bags and More Bags

I have been working on quite a few of the purses that I have been doing for Christmas. I have finished the knitting on 3 and just have to do the lining on them. Unfortunately, I have to find the time to organize my craft room a little bit and bring down my sewing machine so that I can do them. :/ Maybe I'll work on a couple of the other ones in the meantime.

Came home and sat down and worked on the gray purse that I designed. Wouldn't you know that I didn't have to take it out once! Like I said, I think it was a concentration problem. I am really pleased with the way it has turned out. I took it in to my LYS Saturday. I wanted to get an opinion on what to do with the handles. I couldn't decide whether to go with leather or do a I cord handle. I decided on the I-cord. I am making two small ones and twisting them together. Hopefully I will be able to post some pictures of these creations soon. Jan the owner really liked my bag. That made me feel really good.

I have 3 more left. 2 of them are felted bags that I have patterns for and the other one is going to be another original design. I have some ideas, but we shall see what happens. I'm not sure what shape to make it. I think I want it smaller than this gray one I just finished.
