Crafty Projects: Bag Swap

I recently got involved with a bag swap, organized by Audrey's Country Crafts. The participants were paired up by Audrey and we each sent someone a bag. These could be handmade or bought. It was great fun!

I'm not sure if the bag I made has been received yet, but I'm dying to show it off!

It's a simple crocheted purse, about 8" by 8". The closure is a loop that goes around the silver button in front.

I got this lovely tote bag from Paige at Lenox Knits. She also included a hand-knit headband and wristcuff. I love everything! Check out Paige's blog too.

So thanks again to both Audrey and Paige! I love these crafty swaps! :)

That's wonderful!! Congratulations. I'm still waiting for mine - but it always takes longer to get to Canada.

Oh - I have seen your button on a few blogs while dropping on ecard. Some of your buttons "move", the one I have (your button) on my blog doesn't. Could you email the code for the moving one? I'll replace the "still" one. Thanks and have a great day!!

So glad you liked it. I was torn by giving up the bag but I thought it was something you would like. The crocheted bag is adorable. I'm sure the recipient will enjoy!
