Mamma's Got a Brand New Bag....


Oh yeah, when I'm blue, I make a new purse. Isn't she a beaut?! I call this one my 'Jane Jetson' bag. This fabric reminded me of The Jetson's-it was way cool. I love the ovals and rings. very planet like. Today was a long, cold, rainy day. Feeling hohum, couldn't get settled into my dolls so it's time for a new purse(and wallet). I dug out my fabric, pattern and handles and went to town this evening. I'm glad I have a good stash to work from. I loaded up my CD player with 3 good CD's of Classical music, hit 'play' and started. My birds just love it when I"m in the groove. I sit there and whistle and sing-well, mostly whistle-and they have a ball with me. I have two gray cockatiels that are very spoiled-Stella and Stanley. They love their mamma. hahahaha. Stanley loves to whistle along with me. well, at least he tries to. He is actually learning the theme to the old Andy Griffith show. It's funny to be sitting out in the living room and all of a sudden you hear strains of Mayberry RFD coming from the sewing room. Anyway, my purse is done and my head is clear. Now I feel better! Ain't nothin' like a new bag for Mamma to make her feel all better.......Ahhhhhh.....now I can get back to dolls.
