I wanted to start this post with a GIANT apology to all the wonderful people who have ever left a comment on one of my posts. As you know, the comments show up on the post itself and also as an email in my inbox. Instead of replying to the emails, I usually come back and "reply" to the actual comment on my blog. I just realized this week that when I do it that way, the person who commented doesn't get an email back from me.... and might think I ignored (or worse yet, didn't appreciate!) their comment. This makes me very sad, because comments MAKE MY DAY and I appreciate every single one of them!!! From now on, I'll reply to the emails (instead of the comments on the blog) to make sure you get a response. I'll be a good bloggy friend from now on, I promise!!
Now on to the progress I made on my May Small Project Sew Along list this week....
I was able to cross a few things off this week. Woo hoo!
I made this messenger bag for my kindergartener's BFF's birthday (say that 3 times fast!):

I also got some embroidery and applique done for The Forever Project:
