I think I may have lost my mind

It's oh dark thirty and I have not touched the sewing machine yet this morning. I haven't turned on the iron or cut any fabric. I believe I need the cleaning fairies come over, zip around the studio, make it all pretty and maybe then I will feel like sewing...a'la Cinderella (Disney version). Maybe not. I keep going back and forth between loving making the bags and wondering "what the hell was I thinking?!" 12 down - 68 to go. Sheesh!!

Here are a few. I take them to the office and hang them on a tree to photograph. Outside light makes for better pictures (at least with my camera) and I can't find anywhere around my house that works for displaying them particularly well.





(Notice the "artsy" fade around the bag on the bottom? I was feeling frisky and decided to try one of the effects in Picasa. I am thinking about using a new photo of me with the blurring effects for my blog photo!)

  6. Fabulous bags Susan! What's the deadline for the 68? I think I'd need to be committed afterwards.

  7. Those are gorgeous - I'd have a hard time picking which one was my favourite. I'm in a bit of a sewing slump right now too - I'm waiting for inspiration to hit me up the side of the head.
