I just completed my latest project, an Oriental design tote bag from A Stitch A half. All squares done in a 4x4 hoop, then joined together. I have more bags and totes than I will ever use but when I make a new one I can't bear to give it away.

This is a beautiful bag. My best friend makes bags, too, and has a hat stand heavy with them..... last count, 43 bags. She has trouble parting with her 'children' and most of them have pansy fabric in them.

Thank you for the kind comments on my bag. There are 34 individual squares and it was a lot of work but I love it and it was worth the time. Flowers to all. :)

You are sew creative. I have a number of those designs but I never thought of putting them all together like that. Your bag is gorgeous. I think it is time you kept for yourself. It lets people know what you can do. Really beautiful.

I can understand you not wanting to give it away, it is beautiful, love oriental designs, my big problem is not such much the embroidery but the sewing together, my stuff never looks too good.
