I'MMMMM BAAAAACK!

 I have been a different kind of busy these past couple of weeks.  First, finishing my Master's degree... WOOT WOOT!!!  You have no idea I happy I am to be done.  I. AM. DONE!

Second, between my calling at church and finishing up a bunch of sewing projects for other people, I just haven't had time to blog.  I have however been working on a bunch of projects.  Mostly sewing, but I do have a bunch of other crafts ready to go.  Now if only my husband would buy me that hand sander I want.

I ran across this post the other day while blog hopping.  I liked the idea of this simple purse, but I decided to shorten the straps a bit.   
I intentionally wanted to add the bow to the top where the seams meet.  I had this great idea in my head about how it would look like the pink parts would meet and then tie in a bow at your shoulder.  Needless to say, I tried about twenty different ways to make it work and after picking out the seams twenty times, I gave up!  Instead I made it a bow on the front.  Not what I originally planned, but it works.
Enjoy!

I need one with longer straps for disneyland! Maybe you should just give one of those made in a cute material just to me!
