Quick Udate

Sorry I have not posted in a long time...summer is here and there is just so much going on.
I started a new job this year, My oldest son and his girlfriend have moved in with us and I have planted flowers and roses everywhere!!
Not been able to do much with my art this summer.
I did decide I had better get back to my bead knitted purse so that I may be able to enter it into the fair in Oct. I had almost forgot about it until I decided to clean out my art studio and thought "O my, if I don't get back to it I will never get done for the fair" So for the last couple of day's that is what I have been spending my spare time on.
I have not seen any of the quilts so I guess my sisters are as busy as I have been and have not done any quilting for the summer.
If I get time I will post pictures of the purse in progress...
It is the a Barbara Pratt pattern "Vanessa" I am doing it in an ecru color thread with an off white bead. I just love the knitted bead bags, I have 3/4 of it done so if I don't give up I will finish. This is the first one I have done in a full size bag, I have done some small necklace size but never a full size bag. I am real happy with the way it is turning out!!
I will try not to wait so long before posting again
Take Care all
Get creative!!!
