Creative (Sort of) Success

The experiment was a success; I converted an old folding workbag and some vintage cotton trim into a folding stand for a basket or workbag.

Before:

I didn't get the kitchen floor washed, but so what, I made something useful out of two things that were taking up space, and I watched two more episodes of Keen Eddie while I was sewing. I do love that show...

Thanks! I'm pretty pleased with the result, if I do say so myself.

I appreciate things that keep other things up off the floor.

Julia, that's both attractive and functional, yay.

That's lovely! (Did you ever find a cat in the old one?)

I didn't get the kitchen floor washed either. But I was sleeping and blogging; you've made much better use of your time :)

Thank you kindly. No, I keep that kind folded and stored unless they're actually in use, and the cats prefer paper bags or boxes anyway.
