I undid all the work at the side and just seamed the sides up until the armholes.

Finished up the shawlette.

Also, there’s this. A simple bag with a front pocket.

A better picture of it is on my Instagram.

Not since college, has the name Jean Ray Laury, been in my mind.  I did a Google search to see if she was still alive and found out she passed away in 2011. I have had periods where I started sewing then quit. For a time, quilting was fun, though the output was minimal. One quilt was made with circles in squares but it didn’t work out.
