Baronial largesse bag project
For my wonderful B&B, Baron Hauk and Baroness Rosamund of Aquaterra, I'm going to attempt to crank out a bag a day. The idea is that they can fill them with stuff for Ursulmas largesse, should they choose to.
Beloved Laurel parlor-games taught me many moons ago that it is kinder if traveling folk receive their largesse in bags, rather than baskets, as bags are far easier to tetris into their suitcases/rubbermaid totes/whatever than wicker. Many of the folk our B&B will be showering with gifts will be traveling great distances, so hopefully this helps. The bags themselves aren't all that big (as evidenced by my strategically placed quarter) 8x6.5, so my guess is they'll probably just stuff them full of cash or something. You know, as a friendly gesture to say 'thanks for playing'. Or maybe not. Who could say. Anyway...
Here is today's bag:

here is what the scrappity concept bits looked like before hand.
This is neither here not there, but in the background is the dining room table my grandfather built. It's my most favorite piece of furniture in the entire universe:)
