A TISKET, A TASKET, THE BEGINNING OF A BEAUTIFUL "BASKET"

Happy Holidays sweet friends and blogging buddies. It has been forever it seems like since I last posted. First up I would like to show you some progress photos on a fun "City Bucket" project by In Your Bonnet.  It reminds me of  "Sue Spargo" style, you know, bright, funky, colorful, and fun.  Zany is the perfect word for it. What do you think?

The embelishments are so fun!  Take a look-see.......













Each of these little blocks will be stitched together and will become the outside pockets to a "bucket" style bag.  When it's finished I will show you the "grand finale".

Have a glorious day and as always,

Smiles....

Jolene
