It went from this....
To this...... I will admit that the screening was not easy to work with but it is now done. How do you like it now.....????
When I was cleaning my sewing room the other day I came across the stencils that my friend Krista made for me before leaving Amerika Samoa and so....today I worked up some towels. Still thinking of embellishing the flowers and pelican...we will see. I have two more towels that need some stitching but that will be for another day.
Don't forget the Beam N Read blog hop.....we are on day 2 now...just click on the links on my sidebar. Thanks!!
Oh...so I topped off my evening with finishing this...whohooooo It is a bright green and navy blue, the colors don't show up well. I really need to learn to work my camera!

Barb, your screen bag is just too cute for words! Your fabric choices are fantastic!
Goodness you have been in a sewing frenzy!! Great tote for Mom and I LOVE your towels :0)
Crispy
Wow your bag is fantastic. Nice to get a few things finished
I love the screen bag. I just knew it would make a great tote bag. You can see what is in it. It would be excellent for quick shopping trips.
Oh the screen bag is too cute. I never wanted one until I saw your's. The towels are so fun. You will enjoy them. I love the 10 minute block quilt.
I wondered what that screen material was for. That tote is so neat. I like your quilt very much, too. Yep, the sewing machines like to be fed fabric on a regular basis:)
You are the hardest working most creative person I know! I would have thrown the red screen away!
The screen bag is fabulous. You are going to get lots of requests for that one from family alone!
Goodness you have been busy! Love your bag and the quilt is awesome!
I *love* that bag!!! Definitely a better fabric choice than the first one shown. OK. Gotta go get a napkin now - too much drooling. ;D
I think the butterfly fabric was a perfect choice for your Mom's screen mesh bag.
I've been toying with the idea of "dressing up" our kitchen towels. The one thing that has stopped me is that my family won't use them if I make them "all pretty". lol
That turned out real cute. Can't wait to see if Mom has seen it. Well that will be at 9 o'clock
Wow you have been smoking those machines. The bag is beautiful, also love the lime green...and the quilt is awesome...great job BArb!
The screen bag is wonderful! I don't think this will be the last one you make. And your towels are adorable. Love the quilt!!
It looks like you made your Horizon happy with your return :)
yoyou are on a sewing frenzy and that bag is perfect for the beach. you know i love the towels. I am going on vacation tomorrow and there are 6 quilts shops on the way. I am excited!
I love the quilted design in your diamonds! Very pretty, and clicking twice reveals the blue/green colors nicely.
Lovely screen bag. I cannot/will not start another project - well.... This would be perfect to carry to the beach. Happy quilting!

That is a cool bag!
It looks lovely! I love the screen bag. Perfect for a day at the beach :)
Back to your busy work!!! I really like the bag with the screening. I haven't sewn on it, but I did hear it was a little challenging.
The screen tote is an excellent idea. I love the one you made... and now I'm thinking of making a version of it for a birthday gift for the beach.
Mom said it looks good.

The bag is great, I was wondering just what in the world your mom was wanting you to make with that roll of screen!
The bag turned out great girlfriend! I love your choice of fabric! How does mom like it?
Your bag turned out so cute, great choice of fabric. I just got back from Hawaii and your bag would have made a adorable beach bag. I may have to make one for next time.
Oh man the screen bag is just to cute for words! I love it!
Your bag looks great! I've seen that screen and wondered how it would be to work with.
Love your bag, Barb and the fabrics you put with the red screening. Your Mom will love it.
You've been busy, I see....good deal.
I think I recognize that first piece of fabric. The bag turned out very nice and the towels are too cute.
You are supposed to do what your mom says! Right? lol Glad you disobeyed :o) the butterflies and dots are perfect with the red screen!! You'll have to make something else special for your mom with the other (wouldn't want you to be in dutch).
