It's been a bit since I last posted. I've been busy lately. On Friday I taught the second of two classes on my free-form sweatshirt jackets. You can see the sweatshirt jacket method here. Everyone really enjoyed the class and the jackets really look wonderful. I just have to finish hand sewing down my binding and I will be finished mine too :)
This cute little tote bag is the Summer Tote pattern by Lazy Girl Designs. Isn't it cute? I did it out of the new Cho Cho fabrics by Maywood that just came to my LQS. I have received so many comments on it so far that it is very gratifying :) I know this wasn't a UFO but hey I just had to make it. It is such a nice size and it fits under my arm really well. I just love Joan Hawley's patterns. They are very clear and easy to follow and they always turn out really well. I have made a few of her bags and I have always been very pleased. If you haven't made any of her bags yet you should really consider it :)I am still working on my UFO's. I just need to make one more preemie quilt and I will have all 20 finished and another UFO will be off my list. I'll post a picture of them all when I get them all finished.
Also, please feel free to post comments! I always love hearing from everyone and I find it very inspiring to read what you all think.

Love the bag. A person can never have too many cute bags.
Lazy Girl designs are one of my most favorite - you can't go wrong! Your fabric choices for the summer bag are perfect, it just feels like summer.
Very cute bag Katrina. Glad to see the UFO's are progressing. I joined in on the frenzy today piecing 1/2 square triangles, still have over 300 to do. Oh my goodness am begining to wonder why I chose a pattern with so many of them in it. Also looked at your instructions for the sweatshirt jacket. Very clear directions, thanks for sharing.
that's a great bag Katrina -- I love the Lazy Girl patterns, too.
This bag is super cute. I'm just getting into quilting and I find your site inspiring!
Hi Katrina,
Your Summer Tote is scrumptious! I love your fabric combination.
Great job!
