Feeling excited to get to work on finishing up the bags for the belated Birthday present. I am inspired after reading Shams latest blog entry on the most delicious jacket ever!

I even have the blouse pattern all cut out and queued up to get groovin.

Especially after going to LA, to visit with friends to go fabric shopping, museum viewing and pondering the ways of how to become more creative.

Rene' Lalique has been an inspiration of mine ever since I discovered him as a kidlet. The illustrations for jewelry design as well as the perfume bottles are sheer perfection!

The Doctor..

 

 

 Yes, it was all about the Doctor..

 

 No, no, not this one!

However, any one of them will do..

In my travels last weekend, I was on the search for a gift for a knitting bud, he goes by the nickname, D.D. (a.k.a Doily Dude) and I wanted to find the perfect inspiration for a good giftie..

Hurrah! Eureka, I found the most perfect fabric,  already made up into do rags. 

At this point I am sure that you are wondering, what the heck does Dr. Who have to do with the do rags, right??

 Well, here is what the fabrics looked like.

 So I quickly came up to a great idea of making some needle bags for D. D.'s Birthday gift! Shhh, he has no idea what I am up to..
