Spiffing it Up!

This is the new and improved model of the cross shoulder purse!
It is 1/2" wider to accommodate the side seam bulk and I added two pockets!
I am encouraged by how easily it went together the second time around even with all the changes. 
Even the lining was improved so there are no exposed seams!
I added the second little pocket to the front for coin or credit card easy access. 
And an open pocket on the back for quick access, too.
This one is on its way to Marsel! 
We did the annual mulching out front!  I can't believe how much it defines and accentuates the flower areas....why do I let it get so glum between re-mulching?
Never again! 
It also is better for the plants because it holds the morning watering so much longer than the sandy soil does!
It's hard work but we are pleased with the sweat of our brow when we are finished!

I did sew the rows together and cut the borders so I could sew them.  I didn't make too many mistakes (the brain is still very slow! lol...
