I am finally getting motivated again. It took a while since the One of A Kind Show, Christmas and New Years. I took the first couple weeks of January off from sewing but am now back in the swing of things. Although I am currently looking for a new machine, since my sewing machine is finally wearing down. I have been trying a few new recipes. My husband went salmon fishing in Northern BC last summer and we have a freezer full of fresh salmon. This mango salsa was amazing with the fish. He also caught halibut which I also made.
I made a great orzo salad with feta, cucumber and tomato with a lemon garlic dressing. Delicious!
This was my leftover lunch the next day. I sliced some baguette and topped them with the grilled salmon and halibut and then put them under the broiler. When they came out I topped them with the mango salsa. More tastier than the first night.
Over the years, I have been asked to make clutches with a removeable handle. After a few tries this is my proto type. I made it with a pretty chain that can be easily removed or tucked into the bag itself.
I am entering a contest for InStyle magazine in April for an evening clutch that requires a removeable handle. Now that I have worked out the glitches, I can begin to make one. When I have finished it, I will post a picture.
I finally got my sewing mojo back on! Had to get in the creative spirit, it takes awhile sometimes. I am still searching for a new machine, my old Kenmore is dying a slow death. Next week I will hunt for a faster machine.
These are the only flowers around here. It is cold and snowy again. This bag is a breath of fresh air.
