I finally set up a separate blog for the Eclectic Whimsy bags. :) Now for those that check in on my blog looking for something other than a constant barrage of bags finally this blog will be able to return (for the most part) back to it’s regularly scheduled programming. :) I may still talk about sewing but at least each post won’t be filled with photos of my latest bags. Hopefully I’ll get to do some scrapping this week and maybe even post something scrap related for once. For those of you looking for a new handbag there will be a link to the right that will take you to the latest creations with an easy ‘buy it now’ button for each bag. I have to get to work and haven’t figured out yet how to add a link on the side bar where you can click on our Eclectic Whimsy logo to go straight to the site. For now you can find 2 new bags posted by clicking here. I only have one bag left of the ones that I’ve posted on the blog here. It’s the one with the green floral button. I’ll post that on the bags site later today. I also have another bag made (and 2 more cut ready to sew) that is like the Nancy bag with the blue and greens a few posts back. If anyone is still interested in that bag let me know. I know there were quite a few that commented on it so I should have 3 more, 2 the same size and one a bit larger for Angie (maybe?) since she’s looking for a bag for a trip. :)

The blog banner needs some work but I’ve gotta get into work by 11 and I get to pick up my replacement phone (finally) at the sprint store or I’ll have no cell all day. I have one of the nicest phones they sell with a PDA and all but it seems to have one problem after another lately and apparently I’m not the only one with issues because they’ve been unable to find a replacement in the whole state of Michigan. I finally convinced them just to replace it with one of their regular phones. I’m sure someone in the store is pumped because they get my fancy schmancy phone as long as they’re patient enough to wait for the replacement but I rely on that thing too much to wait a month for things like voice mail to actually work or at least let me know when I have one. So, off to the Sprint store and then to work and then Mary and I are leaving work a little early today and she’s treating me to Carabba’s (my favorite restaurant) to celebrate a great August. Yummmmm :)

And, since I can’t post without including a picture I have to post about the latest book that I can’t put down. I’ve already made an apron for my sister Tammy and the instructions in this thing are so easy to follow. It’s nothing nearly as fun as Kim’s aprons but it was fun to try something different for a break. :) If you have any interest in sewing this book is a must have!
