Gail Pan SAL - January 2015

http://sunshinequilting.blogspot.com/2014/12/gail-pan-patterns-sew-aong-2015-infos.html

Last year I participated in a Gail Pan SAL (hosted by Martina of Sunshine Quilting) where we did projects from her book "Patchwork Loves Embroidery." I had a lot of fun making several need-fuls from that book...
This year the Gail Pan SAL is for all of her designs, which are many!! I still have a couple projects from her book that I'd like to do before looking through her website to choose more:) This month I worked on a tote bag from her book. I had done the embroidery last November, but hadn't gotten around to making the bag. I didn't get it finished this month either, but I'm glad to have gotten it started...
I just love the color of the fabric!! The original was all red work, but I found the rust colors to be much more fun:)
I have the front and back panels done and all the other fabric cut and ready to go. The finishing always takes me longer than I think it's going to. I'm hoping that next month I will have this bag done and a good start on the next project:)
