Finally a start to finish!

It feels like I am struggling to finish projects right now. With selling the house, teaching at summer camp and have a small flood in our basement so much time has gone elsewhere and not to quilting and creating.
I wanted to make this pedal purse for a while now...
 
From this magazine...
And I did! I made some minor adjustments like buttons and where I put the Velcro. But I think I have to put the Velcro back to its original spot. I also didn't put the zipper in.
I thought I would put it here but it will get dirty from the tire.



So then I thought I would put it here but I think it will fall over when riding.

 



So I think I will change the straps so I can put it on the front like the picture. I changed it...a much better fit!

This is how it looks as a purse.

I also got 3 new additions to my Hermit Crab Family. Here they are...


Here are all of them... I have had hermit crabs for about 7 or 8 years now.  I have 2 of my original crabs left so I decided to get some new friends.

  2. It looks great on the front of the bike. And fun as a purse too- so nice to have something versatile.
