Vintage Bag

Good Morning Crafter's,  After a busy few days, I managed to catch up with some Christmas chores and put up the trees and finished my cleaning. I even wrote and posted my Christmas cards. I still have my wrapping to do though and finish some family & friends Christmas &  Birthday cards. This morning I finished a bag that I started ages ago. The instructions were given by the very talented Patricia over at Summerhouse Crafts who kindly gave her precious time to show us how its done. I used a vintage theme for mine as it will hold some of my Truffles either for a Birthday or Christmas gift.  The papers were  from our lovely Astrid McLean who again shows her kindness by giving us a Friday Freebie every week. So I'd like to thank both ladies for all they do to inspire us all.   I will always put a link back to the person if I use their ideas. As I really think its the polite thing to do.
 Hope you all enjoy a crafty week.  Hugs Rita xx

Rita
This is so very beautiful and that image of the child is too precious.
This surely involves lots of measuring (I am hopeless at measuring!.
This is so beautiful that I would be using it to store bits 'n' pieces long after the gift has been removed but who needs a gift!
Wishes
