Re: Let them eat cake..Cake 9...8-4-13

Ok so the whole cake room thing has fallen apart, so I had to come up with a different finish. I had found a tutorial on facebook that I have been dying to try and I thought ok well she can use this as a tote bag when she is talking to clients, ie....Brides.
This is the finished bag standing up all by it self

The back I used 4 star squares

The bottom is a 7 inch swatch of star fabric

I so wish you could see this in real life because it turned out so great......sorry for being so arrogant but I am super happy with the result.

The finished cross stitch is brilliant. I love how you've done it and the design is so cute!

But, the finish is just amazing. That bag is fantastic! Wow. You are so clever :) :applesauce:

That is sheer genius, and if she doesn't want the bag I will very gladly take it off her hands! Rose, what an amazing "finisher" you are :applesauce: :applesauce:
