Bag lady

I've been crocheting my little heart out trying to get my projects done and hat orders filled and squares made for the SD wildfire project. I wish I could wiggle my nose and get the house cleaning done and paperwork in order so I had more time to crochet. Oh well, sleep isn't that important right?



This week I've finished up three bags. The sling bag( http://members.aol.com/lffunt/tote.htm) I used a pattern except I used SWS and felted it just for a few minutes to close up any holes. The other two bags were just crocheted as I went along. I had some huge handles left over from a lot that I bought at an estate sale. So of course I had to crochet a very large bag to go along with it. I've already sold it, so it will have a home this coming Thursday night when I go to the Oceanside Sunset Market.




Most of today was spent helping out my dad itemize everything down to the toothpicks he had in his house when the fire occurred. It's so amazing how fast things add up. He was getting tired after about hour three. To be honest so was I. The whole thing is just emotionally draining. Only one thing left to do tonight and then it's back to the couch to finish up some squares!
