With light jazz in the background I completed this knitting bag for a friend. This pattern i will always refer to as Flora’s Knitting Bag. Flora, the matriarch of our patchwork group always sits in a fabulous chair at the end of the table we surround on a Monday night. Flora is a woman of class, immaculately groomed, comforting, inspirational, an excellent listener, dependable and a fantastic quilter and knitter. A group of us like minded people meet at her home, some have been meeting for over 20 years. We share lifes ups and downs, a sanctuary where there is always a solution to a problem, advice flows freely whether this is a craft problem or something life throws at you (and sometimes whether you want it or not - but this is what we love). We swap craft ideas and patterns often we sit and have a chat served with a cup of tea on her best china. She always says use the good china now and enjoy it, no need to leave it in the cupboard.
