As promised in my last post; here are the photos of my organizer project. Here is the link for the recipe or instructions if you prefer.

Empty organizer, notice how sturdy! Easier to load this way

.

Look what I can fit in this thing! I tweeked the pattern to use in my gym bag. It measures 36″ x 8″ - Pocket is 36″x 7′.

Rolled and ready to put in my gym bag.

In the bag! Spread out to the sides and it leaves a nice area in the center for my towel and clean clothes. Throw in a plastic bag for wet stuff.

And GO!!

Can’t wait to finish a smaller one to easily do my quick purse change!!

I finally feel like I’ve come out of hibernation even with the cold weather and even the snow we have be getting lately. The days are getting longer and we are having longer and longer “sun breaks” (Pacific Northwest speak).

The true test for me is that I’ve been inspired to finish projects and even to do a little creating. I made one of the super simple and very functional purse organizers.  I found a free pattern at http://thegivingflower.de/?p=920 and of course as per my norm, I tweeked it to suit my needs. Awesome! Any little project that can be finished in less than a day is a great mood booster. Pictures will be coming soon.

So I needed a rainy day to gather my thoughts and ideas? Well it’s raining and I’m still distracted by other things. The sumer was so beautiful and sunny here, a treat in the Pacific Northwest. We still have a few days left until fall and the weather has definately changed. The rain is welcome, but I wasn’t ready for the drearyness. Sooo, I need to get focused on creating something. I need to be accountable so I’ll put in print that I will start a bi-weekly journal quilt. OK big procrastination here.. I’ll start next week! I really need to work on that. I am commiting though!

What a View!

I finally posted a photo on the quiltshow page. It only took an hour and all I could get was one but that’s progress, yes? I’m easily distracted, but if I can get the photo posted of today’s bike ride you’ll see why other things catch my attention. Awesome?
