Hello, and Happy Tuesday, my friends! I did not stick to my list this past week. We were wrapping up the last week of school before Spring Break and running around getting some last-minute job stuff done for my youngest daughter. I decided I needed to make a few project bags to sell to pay a bill, so I hung up my Paradiso quilt top and backing and started cutting out pattern pieces for project bags. I’m only making a a few of them in specific fabrics, so I won’t be returning to taking custom orders. I am not ready to head down that path again! I’ll be listing them for sale sometime next week on my Instagram account.
This week’s To-Do list:
- Sew Sugar Skull Girls and Skulls & Roses Project Bags

Stitch ALL The Things 
Hi Christine,
So you did end up caving a bit on the bags, but it sounds like at a much lower stress level. Good idea! Although I’ll bet you’d get some custom orders if you hung out that shingle again. ~smile~ Roseanne

I wasn’t too excited about having to go this route, but bills must be paid and all…LOL! Of course I did my usual Christine-Thing and instead of cutting out a “few” bags like I told my husband, I cut out 14! I did feel the weight of the decision affect my crafting this week. It is a good indicator that I’m not ready to get back to sewing bags. I just can’t seem to do that and manage my time well in other areas of my life. But at least it’s a one time thing, for the moment! And right now my “NO” game is strong as far as taking requests…LOL!!

Yes, it’s a bit easier on me to do them on my own time frame and with fabrics I choose and happen to have on hand!
