Pink and Grey Bag

I received alot of wonderful suggestions for the embroidery design for the pink and grey charm squares but when I came across this butterfly in my library, I was in love.  Also, when I opened the pack of charm squares, I noticed that there was a stunning shade of gold in them so I incorporated that with the pink and grey in the butterfly.
 The bag has been lined with a grey and white print that is just as pretty as the outside.


I also want to thank all of you ladies who have signed up for the giveaway and have posted about it on your blogs.  It's a beautiful pattern and I'm envious of who gets to stitch it.  I fell in love with the design when I saw it on Kathy's page but when I received the pattern, I knew it was too intense for me.
I'm not sure if it's age or what (61 is coming up...yuk) and my attention span has shrunk.  I just cannot concentrate on large or complicated projects.  By that I mean ones with alot of colors or stitches.  Maybe menopause kills those brain cells that takes care of those issues.  Hmmmm....good question for the doctor next time.
Anyways, the giveaway will end on the 19th and if you like the above bag, you'll find it for sale in my store.  Just click on the box under my header "Items for Sale".
Until later, Blessings
Barbara

BTW I just turned 61 on March 7th -- so as the seasoned vet of this 'new age'---it's not half bad. Made a new resolution --will only stitch what I absolutely want to see hanging on my walls or overflowing some basket or other!
