I'm feeling the need to back-track a little today.
I'm really going to have to post much more frequently if I'm going to keep up with all the photos I've taken for you. Take todays post, this project was finished a month ago! That's very bad blog house keeping isn't it? Tut, tut!

after all, I chose the name MarmaladeRose.
(I like the way it forms in your mouth when you say it.)
Mar-ma-lade-rose
You can't help but end with a pout!

I've made several of this style bag now and I have to say it's my favourite.

Very roomy!
Well a girl needs room for her blog camera and spare batteries, and a ball of wool and a crochet hook is a must at all times!

This little pocket that I've embellished was once a pair of my daughters corduroy jeans. Hence the need to crochet a cover for the metal Tesco's Cherokee button.

Yeeha!! It's great when you can fully express yourself and then show it off forever instead of having to say goodbye to your work as soon as it is finished. Cherrie
Pretty! And YES, I did try the mar-ma-lade-rose mouthing. Yep, ended up in a pout and I really tried NOT to pout. LOL
Hya, very nice bag that, very very nice indeed. xx
Yes, I love the bag and yes, I did pop over though I had already read the post without recognising you.
Looks like you two girls had a lovely day out in a delightful part of the world.
Cheers

Thank you for sharing your creative world,
