Certain quilty bloggers instituted "Finished by Friday" as a way, I think, to motivate the sluggish among us,to Get It Done Already, and give us the opportunity to brag! I got it done [last week, I've been up to other mischief this week!] and here I am, bragging about it.
Ali had this little basket on her blog last week and I fell in love. She had found a tutorial for it at Pink Penguin.....
When I went, just now, to have another peek, I found that Ali has made another, but bigger this time. So, if you're looking for something quick and cute to make, don't say I didn't provide any suggestions.
The OC, in his capacity as the Chief Wag around here, saw it lying on the table, half made, and commented on the "lovely hat" I was making for Judy, the wifely half of a couple [edited to accomodate my sister's word usage persnicketiness!] we visited last weekend........I suppose you could wear it on your head,[if you were a little daft] but I think it would look much nicer on a table, filled with chocolates, or acorns, or jellybeans. But, he must have his fun!

The "wife half"????
I had a feeling about that phrase! If anything will lure her out of the woodwork...............! Please note, dear friends, The Lady Rise, once again, due to a miracle, has the wherewithal to blog. If she can make snooty comments she can post, right? Go bug her about it......
You go girl! Hat or basket or box or...a rose by any other name is done! blessings, marlene

Lovely bag. Or perhaps a nose cover? How is your nose?
Such a cute bag, & I love the colours.
Beautiful wonderful bag. I also have seen the tutorial but since I am at the stage of just trying to learn how to thread my sewing machine, I can tell you these kinds of projects are far away. A hat, is that not a typical man, how can anyone mistake that for a hat. Of course my sweet Adam calls me 'silk worm' because of all the knitting I do.
The basket is lovely, gorgeous colours.
