I've just spent a fabulous weekend with my lovely
xanthe.
As usual, there was non-stop chatting & laughing (& a fair amount of cake eating, too! *g*)
We also met up with the wonderful
gloria1 &
flyingnorth for a brilliant 'chat' which actually lasted for 5 hours until the coffee shop closed down around us! LOL
Oh, & the weekend gave me the opportunity to test drive my new handbag that I've just made. My homage to the impeccable Lord Peter & his lovely lady, Harriet...

I mocked up the bookcover graphic in the style of the old Penguin books & printed it onto transfer paper which I ironed onto my fabric.
I then used that as the panel for the front of the bag. I'm really quite chuffed with how it turned out. :)


I used a couple of cute little penguin buttons to add some detail.
