practicing my sewing skills

At the moment I'm practicing my sewing skills and here is what I made.Another Giftbag. It didn't come out
too bad.The image is from Viola - thanks.  I also  made this ATC for the Collage Coterie workshop;  the lesson was on size.




                                  Trying to catch up on the lessons as I'm running
behind. Wishing you all a wonderful day/evening  and thank you for looking.
                                                              Hugs,

The ATC is pretty fab as well, you are so talented. I missed out on all the great workshop which started in the summer, darn.

Marie, your gift bag is completely gorgeous. I so love your style. Great art, as always. Lynne M x (P.S. I used a your free image of the Christmas child on a tag and created a link to your Blog, hope that is okay with you )

I love when you "practice" your sewing, Marie - such beautiful results!! (funny thing with your word verification for my post today - it actually says "no nests"- made me laugh being at Lost Bird Studio - is that why the bird is lost? Hmmm...) Have a great day!

I like them both, Marie. That has to be a young robin with that speckled breast. And the added touch of "soul sisters" is just right. There's something just so satisfying about completing little projects. Sometimes the big ones that drag on and on and require days of work can get daunting and boring. I like being able to complete things quickly and move on to the next idea.
Hugs! Diane

The gift bag is really a treasure, love the lace and the Soul Sisters words added. Now on to that ATC what a beauty I love the combination of all the images and the music notes in the background.
A sweet bird song.
