Getting back into sewing projects. It has been a life long craft, beginning about 9 years of age, learning first from my mother and grandmother. Then onto more difficult projects in grade and high school. Culminating in my major in college earning a B.S. degree. I hope to make many craft projects at this stage of time.

TOTE
The tote is finished. It was finalized by attaching the black lining, making a button hole for the closure attaching the strap to the buttons which were attached. I had used these buttons on a previous garmet. The were made using that fabric.
