Hi there! Hopping on real quick. Thought I'd share a couple of good links I came across this week. When I was researching the use of flax oil for Caleb's chronic constipation (TMI! Sorry!) this morning I came across this healthy tips website. I'm especially going to go back and read the part about cutting out sugar (for me, not him). My brother recently sent me this link about Rick and Dick Hoyt, an amazing father and son team. Don't forget to watch the video at the bottom. (and let me know if you were able to make it all the way through without crying!) For you crafters that sell on etsy and ebay, have you heard of hyenacart? A local gal recently turned me on to it. Seems like it's still a very small operation but that's how they all start out, right? Oh gosh...sitting here going through my bookmarks I just came across this link for ooh-la-la rubber gloves. Back in early December my hairdresser was telling me about these gloves she was taking to a white elephant party and not til I saw them could I imagine what a wonderful gift they would be for anybody! You really should check out their fun stuff.

Here's how I finished the purse. Lots and lots of detail work on it...even stitched down every point of that rickrack so it won't curl over later. I'll go put it on the website later today. That stripe-ish fabric I used for the backside pocket is one of my hoarded japanese fabrics. The straps are a fabric covered very stiff plastic so they stand up on their own.

Flax seed oil is SO good for you - I put my DH on it a few years ago :) Can you say Omega-3 without the fish???

Love your bag Jen, super cool!
