Bags and mug rugs

Last year I bought some lovely fabric (rather expensive) to treat myself and make a lovely winter bag. I didn't somehow manage make it that year. Now, when winter is nearly over, I did it!!!!

As you can see, my garden boots are ready to use! With all the rain we had and have I can't go in the garden without them. And, as winter is the time that the oranges are ready, when I want to pick them I need my booties.










It is a big bag, I can put lots of stuff in it. I made two little pockets inside for my phone and keys: things I need to find quickly! Here a detail from the bag.

Two weeks ago I was talking on skype with my daughter in America. She noticed this purple bag in the background, and told me she really liked it. I told her I would send it to her, but she wanted a smaller one. So I went to work and here it is.

She also thought that the Christmas mug rug I sent her was very nice and practical. Being it seasonal, I made her another two other ones. I love the colours; spring is coming!!
