Well, I had to do something with that piece, so I mentioned that I intended to turn it into a tote bag - and here it is.
I also decided that when I did finish it, I would make it my long overdue gift for the giveway I'd planned to celebrate having 100 followers. I now have 113 followers, so I'm it's time I got on that, isn't it! :)
Anyway - the giveaway will be on Wednesday.
I know, I know, there's writing on the side of the bag *le gasp*. It's the selvedge, and I included it because I thought it was totally hilarious that they mis-spelled "finest". (It's a rather spendy wool/cashmere blend fabric from Italy - the mis-spelling gives you pause when considering how "fine" the fabric might be, doesn't it?)
However, if you like the bag despite or because of it's wonkiness, comment between now and midnight next Tuesday, and let me know that you're a follower, and I'll use the random generator thingy to draw a name and let you know who the winner is a week from today.
That's it!
See you Friday.
P.S. I also have a new post up at Coneflowers In Leslieville

Love your bag!.. dig the contemporary & free form design!.....purple is "my" colour!...and the selvedge.....hilarious! Also really enjoyed your posting about how you created "The Path to my Bliss". It is such a cool piece. Isn't it fun when you start out and just intuitively "follow" ( and you can't explain why!)..... and magic happens!
ReplyDeleteoh yes....I am also a (new) follower!
ReplyDeleteI love the fact that the bag has a red lining: reminds me of the swish of a cape or the flounce of a flamingo skirt; and the wonkiness just adds to it. I'm new to reading blogs and consider myself one of your followers ... when I grab the laptop wondering what project Kim's working on, that's being a follower.
ReplyDeleteNOT "Kim".....So sorry!!!!! Kit....!!
ReplyDeleteI love your blog and work...keep up the great work!!!
