CRISPY CRUNCHY

Clean and crisp like a crunchy apple. But what is this? It is a mere glimpse. I cannot show more till the recipient receives it. It is a tote bag as part of the Muslin Tote Swap organised by Caterine. I took some liberties with the idea of a 'tote' - most totes don't have bows. A bow! Why yes, a bow. A large one at that. In crisp green printed fabric from Aunty Cookie with birds and trees and you can almost hear the little twirping of the birds as they sing. Almost. Against a linen background, this is so clean and crunchy.

Just makes you want to go out and buy pretty things just so you can put pretty stuff in it.

More photos at flickr, but, ah ahh ahhh - no finished piece till Caterine receives her bag....

loving this fabric combo, and thinking much of apples these days... it's the season and i am trying all the new-to-me varieties in the market. today's was called "macoun" and it stopped me in my tracks (well, i snuck it into the library actually, and ate it behind a stack as i did a research assignment) the point is, so good and yes, refreshing :)
