I've just been sitting here and stitching my crazy little head off! I'm currently working on beading the lace applique piece on the left-hand side:
Once I have the applique beaded, I'll start stitching the peacock. I've been wanting another peacock purse for myself but I think I'll put this one in the shop and do a pink peacock purse for myself. I'll have to add it to the list as I sewed up a block yesterday with a Marie Antoinette theme and that one is definitely for me!
Speaking of my crazy quilt purses, I loaned this one to my sister:
I have a feeling I may never see it again! Kathi just loves it and she has co-workers drooling all over it too! LOL!!! I'm really not a "red" person. I much prefer pink and other pastel colors. I know Kathi is enjoying it and that's what matters to me!

A couple of weeks ago, I shared a photo of the 1929 Ford Model A Tudor Sedan that Bubba has been working on for years!! I asked him if he a photo from when we bought it. This is what it looked like back then:
And then this is what it looks like now:
I'm so proud of him! He really has stuck with it and little by little, he's getting it together. It's been a rough road restoring this car. But perseverance does pay off! It's not done yet, but it gets closer by the day.

Hi Pam, I'm loving the stitches on your blue purse, and anticipating the peacock! I also love the red one, can see why you may never get it back.
The car turned out beautiful!!
Am looking forward to your guest crazy quilter, and love the idea!
That car is looking perfect - thank you for posting the 'before' photo because we can really see how much work your hubby has put into it. He has good reason to be proud!
Have to admit that I probably wouldn't give that purse back either! Looking forward to seeing who your guest blogger will be.
I can see the two of you driving down the McHenry roads in your refinished car. Maybe a parade or two. He is doing a great job. Of course I have to say the same about you and your work. Look forward to seeing who your guest blogger will be.
Hugs
