Wondering how she does it all.

Sometimes I wonder how my wife does it all. Earlier, I posted two blogs showing my wife’s projects where she painted everything she could get her hands on and crocheted up some throw rugs and such. If you forgot here are links to my-wife's projects-part-1 and my-wife’s projects-part-2.

Now you are in for another treat. She heard that The Flying Tortoise was making a quilt, so she said that she wants to see it, and in the mean time she will show him hers. You know, I’ll show you mine if you show me yours. . .

This first picture is of a crazy quilt (actually it is a yo yo quilt) she came up with;

Turned one end over to see bottom and hand stitching:

My wife also makes hand bags by quilting, like these:

And you don’t want to waste even the smallest piece of cloth, so:

Getting tired of quilting? How about a crocheted hand bag:

Enough for today. OK, The Flying Tortoise, let’s see yours….
