I made some colorful October postcards for my autumn exchange.  I like them but they seem too -- something.

Hooray I was able to upload it correctly (the second time).  I used another autumn fabric for the backs.

I finally finished the red dragonfly tote.  I lined it with pseudo brick suede, and used a zipper I already had - the right size but OLD and metal.  Oh well.  It looks pretty good but the handles could be better.  I ran out of fabric and used plain matching shantung upholstery fabric for those and it was difficult to work with.

Learning something new every day

I still am not sure why I had so much space below every post or within it. But I did get it fixed by deleting those posts! Also Thanks to katya in the help files for telling me how to rotate the photos - that worked!

I posted two other msgs today that got lost somehow but I don't care. Have to create something and get outside today!!

Well I have been reading the help files and apparently the photo orientation problem has to do that the photos were taken with a Canon! I always pull them up in CorelPhotopaint to save them at a lower res, and it still does it. Some people mention rotating while inserting but I don't see that as an option anywhere. Oh well, something to do this morning.

Autumn finally here

Well I have not posted in a while. Creative juices stalled. I had to finish some projects that were due or half-done. I did some Halloween cards and some tote bags. I will try to post. I guess I am going to need help to figure out why photos usually/always post in the wrong direction.
