Well started and finished on a kitchen rug to match all the kitchen things I receieved from Ashley for my swap. So I wanted to do a nice kitchen rug that I so like it's cute and of course it matches. Orange, yellow, and white. Use Sugar 'N" Cream.

Also did another purse, I know I know me and these purses, they are so quick to whip up so I just had to do another one.
This one is a smaller purse with one shoulder strap. Also on the end of the straps are these 2 round melt things that I crochet around and attached them to the purse for a little bit more design to the purse.

Purse done in double strands including the rope like straps.
Also got me a couple of sewing patterns from ebay. Sewing pattern collection is by Khaliah Ali love her patterns they are mainly made for plus size women from 18 and up. Haven't made anything by Khaliah Ali in a very very long time but, since I am upgrading my machine I felt it's time to do more sewing for me. Plus going to my blogger friend Sheila and Gold blog they have inspired me with there sewing projects.
Went on ebay and found a ebay seller selling all of Khaliah Ali patterns for 2.99 each so I had to get all 5 of these. Still looking for more of Khaliah Ali collection that I like.
Ok now the rest of this week I want to do some things for my swap for my Swap Swap Gal our theme is "All About Hearts" so need to get started on that soon. Christina is who I am sending a swap to and I want to make a special special package for her. I also want to finish a purse for a friend of mines mom and start on a pull over sweater for Nellie. WOW lots to do huh. Want to get all these out the way before my sewing machine comes because then my sister and I will start or little sewing challenge.:)
Ok that's it for now. Everyone have a great day.:) take care.
