a New Joy

Don't you know that you yourselves are God's temple and that God's spirit lives in you?

1 Corinthians 3:16

We have all been really sick around here. Some of us are getting better and some are still in the throes of it. Luckily, I'm on the better end. Unfortunately, I'm also the mommy and get to take care of everyone even when I'm sick. Today I cleaned like crazy since illness makes me feel like deep cleaning.

I also made this fabulous bag. It's the Joy bag again. It may not be for sale because I am really loving it. I bought the fabric from JCaroline, a wonderful online fabric store. It is really soft for a cotton. And the Joy bag is really a shopping bag. It's so fun. For a market bag, I didn't really think it needed pockets. However, since somebody may want a place for coupons, I put one pocket on the inside. Then I made the cute little bow, which is removable because it's a pin! You could also put it on your jacket. The Joy bag is nine inches wide, thirteen tall and five and a half inches deep. It could hold a nice little shopping order. Or some new clothes! Since all nine bags are designed, here they are once more with their names and prices. I'm so proud!

Love, Melissa
