Add my usual procrastination to orders to rest after I had bleeding and contractions at 25 weeks, and it's a miracle I finished at all, but my exchange partner will be getting this summery market tote. The second shot is truer to the real colour. I had, literally, only 15 minutes to get to the post office, so photography was not on top of the priority list!
Since I was home, I sent hubby to the store for yarn. He didn't come back with the green I had in mind, but I added a strand of cream from my stash, and it didn't turn out badly. This wasn't the project I originally wanted to make, but under the circumstances, it was something I could do easily from the couch, so I hope by exchange partner likes it anyway.
On that note, the baby seems to be staying put after our scare, and I'm starting to feel more like getting out of the house. I spent a couple hours at Ikea with my boys today, and, it turns out, that was too much, so I'll be taking it easy for a while longer.
Happy Canada Day to all my Canadian friends, both bloggy and real!
How pretty! I am sure she will love it!!!
ReplyDeleteMany blessings!
pretty bag
ReplyDeleteI think adding the cream gave it a nice touch. It's a great bag; I would be thrilled if I was your recipient!
ReplyDeleteThe bag looks great, I'm sure your giftee will love it. I hope you and baby are doing well. With my second pregnancy, I was put on bedrest at 24 weeks; it was a very scary experience. Wishing you well!
