As May draws to a close and the summer rapidly approaches, it’s time once again for me to take stock of all my projects. Before I come up with any more hair-brained ideas (some of them work!), I need to tie up some of my many loose ends.

It’s been over a month since my middle child visited during her spring break from a teaching position, and I decided to replicate her awesome bag. I finally completed all of the pieces (got bogged down for a while), and last night I finished sewing them together while I watched “Beauty and the Beast.”

I guess that silly but fun kids’ movie inspired me. Now I am ready to put my project into the washing machine and dryer to “felt” it. I am a little concerned about how this is going to work out. We shall see!
