A Ta Dah

Hello,
 I wanted to post the pattern for the bag I made for my friend Rachel, but my eyes are really bothering me. I have the pattern written out and ready to type up. Today my eyes have really been bad though. They hurt and I had to go back to the doctor.  Before they started to really bother me again, I finished an embroidery/applique project I have been working on. Here it is.
Sorry the photo is so poor, the light in here is bad. Here it is before I framed it.
This was a lot of fun to make. I used to do stuff like this all the time, before crochet took over my hobby life. Lol. All the pieces are appliqued on and then all the detail is embroidered.
 I gave my friend, Rachel, the bag that I made for her. Here she is with Autumn and another lovely young lady in our summer program.
I think she liked it. Rachel, I am proud of you for deciding to back to your university. Have a great year! We will miss you.
 I will try to post my Tuesday's Tallies tomorrow. It depends on how I feel. I promise to post the pattern for the bag in a day or two. Talk to everyone soon. :)
