She chose a gorgeous range of fabric called 'Zest' from the Stonehill Collection by Donna Wilder for Fabric Traditions. The pattern is 'Frilly Dilly' bag by Janelle Wind.
I hope your Christmas preparations are fun and stress-free. I have finished my shopping which is always a relief.
Things are otherwise a tad stressed in the Bloom household right now. Our harvest is not in yet. And there is a lot at stake financially for us. However, I keep reminding myself that we are in a much better position than many other families.
We are supposed to have Christmas with my husband’s family on the South Coast, but that is all hinging on harvest happening in the next few days. We have a contractor lined up, and providing he doesn’t break down, or get bullied into harvesting someone else’s crop instead of ours, and it doesn’t rain, he will be here very soon.
The bag you made is gorgeous! You did a fantastic job. I am sending prayers that your harvest will go well; I can imagine that stress.
ReplyDeleteI hope all goes well and that your Christmas is able to be stress free and happy!
The dilly bag is just lovely - so nice for you to work with that fabric too..... all the best with the harvest... and for Christmas - wherever you end up being....

I send all my hopes and prayers that your contractor turns up and your harvest comes in without any glitches. Have a great Christmas, where ever you end up having it.
ReplyDeleteBringing that harvest in will not only be great for you but for all of us, so much of our food supply has been lost this year...I pray that it works out as planned for you all in the Bloom household, that you have a Merry Christmas too, with joy and laughter, peace and love! Beautiful bag by the way!

Where are you and what are you harvesting? I wish you luck, we grow hay but because of where we are we only get two or three cuttings and that time is way past for us. Very nice bag BTW.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas Ros! I am working on your gorgeous sewing machine cover featured in Australian Homespun magazine but am having trouble tracking down the tape measure twill ribbon you used. Any ideas where I could find some?? Ta!
