My Mind Is On Other Things Today...

I'm on my way out the door early this morning. Remember, Tag has a vet appointment to have his cracked tooth removed. Prayers, good thoughts and best wishes would be appreciated.

I trust Dr. Stephanie implicitely, but you know how I worry about procedures since Fezzik. I'll be staying up in Sarasota until I can bring him home with me.

Every part of The Bia Bag is prepped and ready for assembly. I cut all the pieces on Saturday and then fused and sewed all the components during the day yesterday. The lining pieces are all in one row, and all the exterior pieces in another.

It's not as large as I thought it would be. It really is a handbag, rather than a tote, but it's still going to be a nice size when it's finished. (It will measure approximately 10" tall x 8" wide.) The wallets I've been making will fit inside this bag, too. That was part of the plan.

I would have completed it last night, but I spent the evening attending a fabulous jazz concert instead. (Handsome on the drum kit, of course!) I'll get the handbag done when I get back home with my boy. He'll be back to tell you all about it tomorrow.
