Toting along

Well, Chloe's graduation t-shirt quilt is bound, signed, washed, and packaged for delivery.  

I can't wait for her to get it this weekend, and to share it completed with you all next week.

In the mean time I am slowly working on my quilted "Perfect Tote" bag (pattern by Elizabeth Hartman).  And I mean slowly with all those layers!  Things were moving right along yesterday with my panels...

... that is until this happened:

After some cleaning, tweaking, and needle changing things are back on track today.  The top and bottom bands are being quilted on as I watch old movies... today's movie-- Kismet.

If I stay on track I should have my bag done in time for my trip this weekend!
