Hello friends..I decided to give my blog a little seasonal makeover. What do you think? I recreated my blog banner using a few of my favorite backyard bird photos and brought in more earth tones. Still might do a little tweaking..this is where I wish I knew my way around an HTML.
I have been busy in my studio getting ready for my November home show in NY. Yesterday I completed these two pretty tote bags. Really love the colors in this beautiful quilters cotton that I bought at KellyAnn's Quilt Shop here in Warrenton. I embellished it with an antique embroidered table runner.
Of course the inside is a pretty as the outside!
I have to share something cute my hubby said to me when I showed these to him. He looked at the two totes and said, "those are beautiful Jan, but do you really want your name on the front for everyone to see?" Spoken like a true secret agent man ;-)
I just shook my head and walked away...with a big smile on my face.
I love this rusty dogwood print...so in tune with the fall season we are in.
Snazzed it up with a vibrant green coffee cup print.
So that's what I have been up to...and judging by all the great blog posts I have reading lately, you are all in high creative gear also...I love it!
Until next time..be kind and stay creative.

I was asked by Kim to do a tutorial on zippered bags on her wonderful blog, Everything Etsy. Please stop by and say hello. See you there!
