Black bag for my friend

Working on a crazy patchwork always gives me the opportunity to play
with all the wonderful colours of the rainbow, but this was indeed
a challenge for me when my friend asked if I could make
a crazy patchwork - with a colour combination of black, brown and
creme.
She also wants a little bit of gold or silver thrown in.
I think she took a fancy to my peacock but she really likes
the handmade roses.
Here is a pic of the top front of the bag.
This last week I've grabbed every opportunity to sit down and
sew, sew and sew some more, and
by doing so, I could finish the front side of the bag.

I do admire the sewing group of Ladies in America, they simply pack all
their goodies together and take off on a boat trip - or spend the week-end
away from home way up in the mountains, not only to escape the daily chores
and duties that binds us and leaves us with so little time to do the things or
hobbies of our choice, but to do nothing other than sew away!
