LOL!! Thanks guys!!
I had issue after issue last night while I was trying to finish it up. I sewn the bottom stitching on the front & back and realized that my needle point canvas was not in the bottom......in all my nervousness and adjusting & re-adjusting things...it had moved to the front panel so I had to pull a section of seam in the liner and fish it out then cut it down a little and snake it back into bottom. Thank goodness I hadn't sewn the bottom sides yet.

Then I just had the hardest time doing the side corner stitching. Wow! It was pretty difficult to keep everything in place & moving all while keeping my line straight. There are a couple sections that are definately "Franken-stitches"!
But all in all, I pretty happy with it. I am very proud that I was able to match the stripes in the pattern up on the bottom & on the top of the liner and I like the way the handles turned out.
Anyway...thank you Riqui! You are a wonderful teacher! Your new students are very lucky to have you. :mrgreen:
