Finally a FO photo of the buttonhole bag. The reason I haven't posted it before now was because I was waiting to give it to my mom for Mother's Day. I sewed a pin onto the back of the flower so she can remove it if desired. Look here for yarn details. I am definitely going to knit another one of these bags since it turned out so darn cute. My mom loved it. Kyle & I went over to her place and we grilled dinner for her and my dad. Then we drove up to see their land which eventually will be their new home. Now it's thunderstorming and I'm going to go cozy up in front of the TiVo for a little Desperate Housewives. So scandalous. Hope all you mother's out there had a nice day! Here's another shot without the bright sun.
The bag is BEAUTIFUL! I used it today for a lunch bag, everyone was jealous, they all wish they had one and also a daughter like mine to make them one, THANKS CARRIE! LOVE, Mom
I am a 30-something dental hygienist living in MN with my Weimaraner Casey, and missing my Boxer Flea. My husband Kyle is my best friend. I drive a 10 year old truck and a 9 year old motorcycle. My brother is currently serving in the US Air Force stationed in New Mexico. I love Rice Krispie bars, all things Tangerine/Mandarin Orange and Pistachio, Peanut M&M's, caramel, Jelly Bellys, comfortable shoes, cowboy/rodeo fabric, warm blankets, handmade quilts, soft pillows, really good chocolate and lazy days. I dislike litterbugs, dry hands, burned popcorn, slow drivers, below zero days and poor service & dirty silverware at restaurants. I'm currently enjoying my new Android phone, working on my UFO's and reading Recalculating on my nook.
I'm looking forward to Christmas!

The bag is very cute. I love the flower!
SO cute, in fact I think it's maybe my second favorite felted object FFO ever! You've got one lucky mommie.
Nice touch with the flower - I hope the mum liked it! :)
