Love the purses and the fabrics. I have your skimming problem, too, and am very familiar with my seam ripper.

Hi- I used picnik to edit the photo. It's like the editor said, free free free. If I have more time I play with photoshop, but for these pic, I used picnik. We are still celebrating Christmas here, but I'll have a little time to…

I know you can create "polaroid" looking photo enhancements with text as Renata did using http://www.picnik.com/ and it is free.

Renata - anxious to hear you answer to Susan Ferriola question about your name added to the photos. My favorites are the middle two bags.

Yes, it does! Thank you for taking the time to make these up and post. Was it an easy to follow pattern/book?

These bags look awesome! Are these meant only to be a tote or they can be a purse as well? What are the dimensions of the bag? Also, what other patterns are in the book? I think the readers would like to know, I know I do.

I like the striped one the best--it shows the lines of the bag really nicely.

Take a deep breath… wow I’ve finally used a pattern from Anna Maria Horner’s book. I’ve only owned it for what, three years?! In all honesty I failed miserably in my attempt to review this book back in ‘09.
I buckled down last week and wowed myself by completing two bags for some very dear ladies. This was a simple pattern, which can be played up or down (all to your preference).
Anna’s directions are easy to…

Hi All,
Soon my fall semester will be over!!! Yeah (say 3 weeks) and I'll be finally making that coat for my husband. At present I'm working on a paper about human nature, Statistics and Leadership.
Wish me luck, I can't wait to be done. Each day of school seems to be dragging on.
Have a fun day sewing.
