bye, bye GFC!! What am I to do now?

I'm so confused with all this.  Why does it have to go away?  I guess I've been in denial for these past couple of months and now I'm trying to save the people I have. I've been trying to stop by and follow some in what ever way possible. I'd hate to lose all my followers and I'd really hate to lose everyone that I'm following. 

<insert sad face here....> 

With that said, I would really like it if you would continue to follow me. Here are some of the way to do that.

Pretty Please.......
and just leave a comment to let me know you did one of the following so I can gladly follow in return. Thank you to all my awesome readers!!

Sewing stuff - New tote bag!

Just wanted to share the new tote bag I made a couple of weeks ago.  I've made a couple more since making this bag, I just forgot to take the pics.  I will be making more totes this week.... these little sausage fingers are gonna be super busy. I'm going to be making big hobo bags...is that really what they're called? lol!! 


For some extra flare I'll just tie the selvages or leftover fabric to the handle.  Sometimes it's a flower or a initial. I like to personalize it a little bit.



Both the outside and inside pockets have brown on the inside with the blue stitching.



I really like the way this bag came out!  My sister loved it!
