Funny story,

Dear girlfriend ordered wine bags for her sons and picked them up earlier this week.
Last night phone rings and it is my dear friend and she is in tears and saying "oh no Michelle, what did I do". Turns out she was wrapping one of them, and while cutting the paper, cut both handles off the bag, I laughed so hard, so here is the replacement bag, wine bottle and glass - emb. lib. grapes and names - grand slam, swirls- embroidery eye. Back reads, "Wine, like friendship gets better with age". I really like this new model hope you do to,
Hugs Michelle

It is lovely and she has a great friend in you - for you to do that - can you repair the other bag, too?

Thanks,
She brought the defective one back today, yep
both handles cut clear through the middle. She will get teased about this one for a while, she is such a nut,

Beautiful. The Font is outstanding, along with the grapes, vine and wine glass. What fabric are you using and the cording?

1 comment
michemb by michemb 22 Dec 2011

Thank you so much,
The fabric is a cotton polyester weave and the cording is bias binding I made, the colors
really do go well together,
