Summer is gone! I hope you had a wonderful summer. It has been fun these last few weeks. Dreading the clean up of the back yard, getting the flowers ready for winter and when to take time out for my projects. Well that day finally came. The back yard clean up is almost complete, just one more day and it is done.

My sewing UPDATE

 

About three weeks ago, my sewing machine decided to not function properly. Well it decided to do its own thing, I decided to stop sewing until I can wrap my head around the idea of taking it apart and giving it a good cleaning. Usually I do this once a month, depending on how often I am sewing. I have been sewing quite a bit, but failed to clean it. Big mistake that was. I took the machine apart and good lord, it had more fuzz in it than I expected. I won't make that mistake again. Below is an image of the purse that I have been working. I just can't decide on the strap. Should it be an adjustable strap or just a short strap?
