I spent it in Greenville Sc with my daughter and new son-in-law.  <br>
Rather than do any crazy black Friday shopping my Daughter And I visited her favorite pedicure spot and relaxed a bit.  Afterwards she took me to some of her best finds.  Resale Shops.  <br>
My most wonderful find was this bag of vintage lace. I spent all of $3.00.  <br>
My next find was a vintage oversized brown jacket. I plan to use the lace and other fun embellishments to make it fun.  More on that later.</p>

The two crazy quilt blocks are only 2 inches square. I did a photo on fabric for the centers. I found a glass pendant to place the two small pieces in. Now she can wear her crazy quilt. </div>

When folding fabric to go on the shelf I use my six inch ruler and wrap the fabric around it. After wrapping, the fabric easily slides off the ruler. I then fold this in half. This creates a perfect size fold to fit on my shelf.<br />

I love the handles and new I needed to design something to fit them. I am now down to okay, I have the bag sorta done in muslin, I have created some really pretty crazy blocks. I need a little more fabric to accent the side and bottom of the bag. This ended up being a bit harder task than I thought. I will simply blame it on the handles. <br />
