Butterflies and Bags!

The Monarch butterflies are making their annual visit here on their way south.  Our neighbor's Bottlebrush bush was just covered with them this morning.

Here you can see one all the way open posing.

Monarch and friend.

I have been making these cosmetic/medicine/electronics bags which are 5 x 9 inches and lined with hand dyed fabric.  I will hopefully be selling some in a couple of weeks along with some of my purses and totes.  These were all made from marbled fabric that I did down here last spring.  There are instructions elsewhere on the blog on exactly how to make these (Instructions for Cosmetic Bag.}.
