No takers yet for Pay It Forward?

See this post for details - it's the first time I have tried Pay It Forward - it seems like a lovely way to connect with folk elsewhere in this big wide world.

I am trying to get enthusiastic about progressing on my latest bag but it's getting a bit warm, my sewing mojo slinks away for a while in this heat. Even more so does my knitting mojo......at this rate my cardigan won't be finished by autumn......and this weekend the forecast is for 44 degrees C - that's 111 degrees F, for those who count that way - that's not nice. But next week will apparently be much cooler thank goodness, my mojo will come back and I will sew up a storm.

The other day I quilted the layers together in a diamond grid for the bag back, laid it carefully on the desk so it wouldn't get creased, and yesterday evening had to kick Binky (The World's Friendliest Cat) off it. She thought it was a lovely new little Binky-sized quilt. I have news for her......no pics yet, I will take a pic when it is finished. There is still some decorating with beads, buttons and bows for the front to be done, the handles to be made, the lining to be cut and assembled, and the whole bag put together. When it's put that way - it doesn't look as though I am very advanced at all!

If anyone emails me and I don't reply within a day or so, please forgive me; we are having ongoing mailbox/server problems. It is so bad that last week I rang the government ombudsman who helps sort out problems, after being passed around from technician to technician, and country to country, I have had enough. I may be old,* short* and fat* but don't mess with me.

PS *old - not really, I am 29 and some months; *short - can't help that, blame my parents; *fat - no, just carrying a bit more weight that my doctor thinks is good for me. But don't mess with me anyway.
