Otto was VERY happy that I had a planning day on Friday and was available for sitting outside in the sunshine with him.

The photo shows a neon coral handmade bag hanging from a coat hook on the back of a door. There are various neutral colored coats and jackets hanging behind the bag. The bag has a zippered top and the top folds down where black wagging has been sewn around the bag for support. The strap of the bag is made up of black polyester webbing and grey-ish green cording is used to attach it to the bag through a loop in the webbing sewn to the bag. The cording has stoppers to allow the user to adjust the length of the bag to their desired length. The fabric used is a lightweight nylon or polyester fabric that repels water and is of unknown origin. Top stitching on the bag was done in neon yellow thread.

I made a bag yesterday. Yeah, it’s really heavily inspired by Packbags. But using things I already had. Someone gave me this neon orangey-coral outdoor fabric YEARS ago and there was a few yards of it and I keep making bags from it. It’s just such a fun and obnoxious fabric. #myog #diy #sew

A small, bright watercolor painting of a purple and pink field of lavender, under a pale blue sky, in front of a classically Tuscan home consisting of two adjacent buildings with pale walls and terracotta red-ish orange roof tiles. The rows of lavender lead you up and across the painting towards the house in the distance. The house is flanked by the tall, columnar trees commonly seen in Tuscany, as well as some low lying, green bushes. The lavender fields are painted in a loose style, the house and greenery are not.

Silly little watercolor I made this weekend from a book in 10 minute painting. I think a lot of the paintings in the book aren’t my style, but it’s giving me something to paint when I have zero ideas.
