A Week of Giveaways Day 6: Scrappy Red Abbey Bag

Methinks it is a token of healthy and gentle characteristics, when women of high thoughts and accomplishments love to sew; especially as they are never more at home with their own hearts than while so occupied.
–Nathaniel Hawthorne, The Marble Faun, 1859

It has been a really fun week for me. I'm so tickled by your response to my week of giveaways. I hope that you'll love today's giveaway just as much as the others. I have one more Abbey Bag to give away, and I'm completely in love with it. It is scrappy and red and just about perfect.

In the words of that funny lady on Napoleon Dynamite, "I want that." I want that! It's so pretty! And I know exactly what needs to go in it too. SNAILS, among other small necessary tools. You know what I'm talking about. Thanks for all the fun giveaways (now...PICK ME!).

I love the bag. The colors are so bright. I really need this as my quilting buddy is always complaining that I drop stuff all over my sewing room floor and then pick it up with a lint brush when I get done.

Thanks for the giveaway.
