Vest And A New Purse

Today was a strange day. It started out nice and sunny. In fact the sun glare from the snow was blinding at times...then I left work to come home. I came out of the school expecting sunny skies and a gentle wind. What met my eyes was an overcast sky and softly falling snow. Oh well, only two more months of winter I hope.

Now I bet you are wondering how a purse and vest go together. Well I needed a break from black, brown and white purses and on this bright day turned dreary decided to get some colour in my life. The vest is something I have been knitting for awhile and I finally finished it tonight.

I think I managed to get a bit more colour in my life.

Well off to visit everyone. Hope the coffee is still on.

Everybody have a wonderful evening.

God bless.

    I love that purse! You are a brave woman. I have the biggest collection of purses in NW Indiana but they are all beige, black, or brown. I'd love a color. Maybe I should get brave and get myself a bright colored purse for summer.

    Hi, Jackie! You did a great job on the vest--very nice!!! I like the purse too. I'm seeing more red purses lately & realized the color will go with a lot of other colors & definitely sparks up everything.

    I like your limes in the vase too--a great bargain!

    God bless.
