How about we end the week with these cuties? They are part of a herd of pronghorn (antelope) that reside near my cabin. Their fuzzy white rears get me every time!🤣 Have a fantabulous weekend! Teresa❤️

This little guy was hanging out with me while I watered my plants. He’s the EXACT color of geranium leaves. I wish for you a beautiful weekend with lots of love. 🩷💚😊 Teresa
2 Years
Dear Kyle—
It’s been 2 years since you left this earth. We are still grieving the loss of you from our family, our lives and our hearts. We will never forget your hugs, your laughter, your sweet smile and the special place you held in our family. So many things remind us of you each day, some make us smile and some hit us hard.
PS—I’m honored that the online magazine Anthrow Circus has published all the letters I wrote to Kyle (known as Little Man here) in the first year following his passing.
Ugh
Hey all. I'm sooo sad, my personal Facebook page was hacked and I'm completely locked out. I feel like someone has stolen my scrapbooks and burned them. It's awful. I'm trying everything I can. I still have my Green Bag Lady Instagram with automatically posts to the GBL Facebook page which still seems to be up but I can't access it. Ugh. :(

Happy 4th to all. ❤️🤍💙 Hope you have an amazing weekend. I’m in the mountains enjoying tons of wild flowers and the great outdoors. XOXO—Teresa🥰

Have a beautiful weekend, get outside, enjoy other people, breathe fresh air, notice the beauty of this amazing planet. XOXO—Teresa
Bagette Tami
It saddens me so much to write this post. Our beloved Colorado Bagette Tami has passed away. She was ill for a while and we were so hoping she would recover. Tami was a reader of the blog before I moved to Colorado. When I announced I was moving, she reached out to offer to help. I jumped at the chance to have her join the new Denver Area Chapter I was forming. Tami was an integral part of the formation and continuation of our chapter. Even when we couldn’t meet over COVID, Tami continued to prolifically make bags on her own. Not only was she an amazing sewist, she was one of the sweetest, kindest souls I have ever known. Her loss leaves a hole in Green Bag Lady and to all her knew her. Rest in peace dear Bagette Tami. ❤️❤️❤️😔❤️ PS—the third photo is Tami with Bagette Dad (also RIP)🩵 also, last photo is with Bagette Marianne who moved back to Australia 😊
UPDATE: New Zealand Chapter
What adorable things Bagettes Olive and Cathy have been making over in New Zealand! Love all their hard work for so many different causes. Keep it up ladies, love to see what you are making and sharing with your community! :) Teresa 🧵🧵🇳🇿🇳🇿

Hi Teresa--
Bagette Cathy and I have been busy again sewing bags amongst other things for community gifting. This is 12 drawstring bags in Christmas fabrics for our neonatal unit (first photo) plus 22 library bags to be gifted to our community libraries.
Also, our quilt club members also made a heap of bags and I forgot to count or get photos. The bags are loved by library patrons which they keep so we keep sewing more.
I've also been sewing a few of these (second photo) for friends' birthdays. Then my friends don't have to use a plastic bag to carry their sewing or knitting projects.

Mettler 🧵 Thread!
A HUGE thank you to our fabulous sponsor Mettler for a box of great thread! 🧵We ❤️❤️❤️ it sew much. It’s the best for bags and beyond. I’m going to the studio to sew the handles in the pile in the second photo with these amazing spools. 🥰🥰🥰
