20 Year Reunion Final Painting

This is the final product. Everyone liked it which makes me happy.
We raffled it off.

Colorful Tote

My inspiration for this came from a JoAnn's advertisement. The one in their advertisement was pink and gray - which I still want to do - but I had this yarn and no idea what to do with it so I thought this would be a good project for it.
I made 2 granny squares the size of my choosing and for the strap and bottom I crocheted one long strip the length I desired and sc on that strip until I got the width I liked. I attached it by whip stitching it to the two squares.
It's not lined, althought I do recommend that if you'll be putting small items inside the bag. I am using it to carry my 'in process' crochet projects. I created a sc pocket inside the bag along the side panel to carry small scissors and my crochet needle.

Purses and Bags

I made these for a friend's daughters.
