What fun feedback!

Thanks to everyone who visited yesterday - what fun to hear from so many of you! I loved hearing all of your ideas for using the Sock Sack - now I'll have to make a few more for myself! And I've had a fun time clicking and visiting some of you - I definitely need a longer day! After the Minnesota Designer Blog Hop is over, I'll post the winner of the book and pattern, so be sure to stop back and check to see if you are the winner!
 
Here's Nancy's bag - she made it yesterday lickety split and sent a picture - plus she already has plans for a red and white one. I think it took me longer to choose fabric to match my zipper than it did for Nancy to sew the whole bag. If anyone else has finished a bag I'd love to see it! Just send me an email at terry@atkinsondesigns.com

Cheryl has been busy making samples for the classes she is teaching for her local quilt shop's Minnesota Road Show. She just finished this Farmer's Market Tote from our Let's Do Lunch book.Way to go Cheryl!

Today Shelly from Cedar Canyon Textiles will share "Easy Pantstiks Placemats" with you - hop over to her blog and enjoy meeting her and learning a really fun technique. Remember to comment each designer so that you will be eligible to win one of the three grand prizes. See you again tomorrow!

I was just fondly remembering having little cukecumber sandwiches and cake under a tent in Perham, Mn with you at Baywindow Quilt Shop one sunny afternoon. I still have my pic with you in my sewing room! You are as nice in person as you are on your blog! Thanks!

Whooo! I feel honored (and a little starstruck) to have my photo (and link) in your blog! Thanks! The bag was fun -- especially the handles. Way cool.

I also gave some ideas how to use these if you don't knit or crochet (I don't!)...

I see many of these in my future...
