Anyone who has been reading here for a while knows I am a HUGE fan of Lazy Girl Designs. Well, Joan has gone and won me over again with her latest design - the Lily Pocket Purse."Flirty, fun and full of pockets to stay organized. Lily is a handy, dependable and stylish companion. Wear Lily from your shoulder or cross-body to rest comfortably and securely at your hip."
This is my first Lily - done up in Moda's Happy Camper fabric. Lily features this cute pleated front ... and on the back she has a great little cell phone pocket. Interior pockets, and a top velcro closure round out her "take and go goodness."
My Lily has already been to work (which often involves cross-campus hikes), to the playground, to the baseball park, to the Dr's office, to the grocery store, to the farmer's market, and to the quilt shop. She's held up to every trip like a trooper - giving me easy one handed access while still being secure, lightweight, and just downright FUN.
She even held TWO baseballs, three pairs of sunglasses, a wallet and a camera - all in one evening!!!
I'd like to share Lily's wonderfulness with one of my readers - so I am giving away one Lily Pocket Purse pattern... (just the pattern - you provide the rest!)

(at least I have good intentions to do that!)
(oh - and this is the back of Lily - with that great and handy little outside pocket! It's deep enough for my LG enV 2 phone to ride

Oh boy, are you ready for the list.
tennis balls for the dog, feathers that I pick up on my walks, flower seed heads that I pick as I'm going along, ketchup, vinegar and sauce packets, dog biscuits/chews. A small toolkit that contains pliers and screw drivers ( well you never know. I'm amazed there's any room for my purse and phone really.
I'm a member of the FB group and I've made a few runaround bags this year which are on my finished slideshow.
Love and hugs Gina xxx
What a wonderful give away! You know I'm already a lazy girl but haven't managed to snag this pattern yet... and you've probably seen all the bags I've done.
As for the strangest thing I've recently carried in my purse, how about a spider in a baggie so my dh could check and see what kind of spider I got bitten by!
I don't know that there is anything unusual that I am carrying in my bag right now. It's just too small for anything extra to stuff in. :(
I really need to make myself a new bag. I should put a deadline on it for before the October retreat! lol
I really don't pack my purse with a ton of stuff because it only makes it that much harder to find anything!! Great giveaway - count me in!!
Just joined the Facebook group.
I always have a camera, flashlight,and measuring tape in my purse.Sometimes there are rocks that I pick up when visiting a new place.
pkritchie@yahoo.com
Yesterday I had rocks, seed pods, and a feather in my purse picked up from a walk with the kids.
I'm a fan. :)
Just joined the yahoo group.
Well, I have 3 little kids, so pretty much anything could be in my purse. My main purse is Miranda-based, so it is large enough for just about anything! I'd say matchbox type cars are a regular, although not that unusual.
I'm already in the Facebook and Yahoo groups, mostly as a reader and not a poster. You can see my favorite (and first) LGD bag at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/LazyGirlDesigns/photos/album/1325530196/pic/131945858/view?picmode
Are you kidding me? I carry EVERYTHING in my purse! I didn't know if I would want to make this new bag, since it doesn't look that big, but if you can carry baseballs in it ... well then, ok.
The strangest thing lately I've had in my bag is a bag of cherry tomatoes that a co-worker gave to me. I threw them in my purse when I left work, and when I got to the grocery store, put my hand in the bag, there they were! HOLY COW.
Anyway thanks for the giveaway!

I have been a fan of Lazy Girl ever since I found out that she was from my home town in Ohio.
Love your patterns
Bonnie
I'm a fan of Lazy girl since yesterday. Love there patterns.
The strangest thing I've had in my purse was a cleaning product.
Probably the weirdest thing I've carried was my daughter's brand new baby bearded dragon...right after we got him (so tiny that he was in a vented butter dish)we stopped for lunch and couldn't leave him in the car, so in he went.

rj2muchfun@aol.com
I am a member of the yahoo group and I am a fan on facebook. Love the Lazy Girl Patterns! Unusual items: clarinet mouthpiece and reeds, oboe and bassoon reeds, water bottle, toothbrush and toothpaste, melted chocolate and then a bunch of regular stuff!
I do have photos, but I'm not technological enough to know how to connect you to my photos!
I've made the Claire, Townpurse, Margo, Maggie, and Wonderwallet. I just bought the Chelsea Tote. I even got my friend who is more into scrapbooking to make her first Lazy and she loves it!!!
msgooldrup@gmail.com
Found out about your giveaway on the LGD FB page. Nothing really unusual. I try to keep things light in my bag as I do get shoulder and neck pain if things get too heavy.
I've made a few LG bags... Claire and Miranda come to mind right at the moment.
Thanks for the chance!
Hi. Love your fabric choice on the Lily bag.
1. I follow Lazy Girl on Facebook.
2. The weird things I carry in my purse? Mini stapler, water bottles, white=out, Tums, Measuring cups and spoons, (picked them up at the fair) my neice's socks (she left them on a sleep-over) cookies, dog treats, and tictacs. Plus the regular stuff.
I have made some Lazy Girl purses, but don't have pictures, sorry!
Thanks for the chance to win. I have been seeing stuff about Lily on FB, and hope to make one soon. Thanks.
Maryellen
What a fun thing you're doing here! Thanks!!!

All kinds of things in my purse over the years: diapers, doggie treats, small tool kit for fixing musical instruments, instrument mouthpieces & reeds, small car toys, ball of thread & crochet hook, extra nylon stockings for my girl musicians who didn't think I was serious about going barefoot..LOL....oh and on and on the list could go...
And now I have a fun blog to follow also! Thanks!!!
crescendogal@yahoo.com
I follow Lazy Girl on Face Book
And I've enjoyed your camper version of this new bag
Still thinking about the purse thing, but I am a Lazy Girl yahoo group"er" and love looking at all the eye candy there.
Ok, thought I already was following Lazy Girl on facebook, but I wasn't...now I am, entry #2
I really can't think of anything really funny that I kept in my purse, but it would be entertaining to share the day that Jenna went into my purse and pulled out the pads and pantiliners and pasted them to the wall...funny story with purse items...does that count?
Hi,
I'm a member of the Yahoo group and just joined the FB group the other day. I've been salivating over the new Margo and Lilly bag patterns. I have Sassy that I'm working on now for my daughter in jellybean fabric.
Strangest thing lately in my purse? - socks for my daughter to try on school shoes and a Webkinz.
Just saw the link to your blog on FB and thought I'd check it out. Love your Lilly bag.
cheers,
michelereilly@yahoo.com
YAY! What a fun giveaway - and a really fun bag! I love the happy camper fabric. They are in my stash but I haven't found the "perfect" project to cut them for. This bag reminds me a lot of the Birdie Bag by Amy Butler, which I made in Lakehouse marachino cherry fabrics. It's a little big, so this pattern may just be a perfect addition!
I am a follower on FB already but not on Yahoo.
The only thing I have made by LG is the wonderwallet - no picture though b/c it's not my favorite.
I don't have a lot of strange items in my giant Birdie Bag. My items may be odd to some, but not to a crafter/quilter: scissors, needle & thread, a caligraphy pen (!?!) and a tape/adhesive runner for my scrapbooking.
Thanks for the chance to win a great pattern :)
I have followed you on Facebook for several months now -- really want to make one of the LG bags and this one looks so cute, with room for everything, maybe. My purse is pretty heavy. The most unusual thing ever in my purse? Well, a gazillion things, but nothing out of the ordinary... occasional rocks, feathers, brochures, notes, measuring tape, all the various store cards for their individual programs (that keeps one busy), eyeglass cleaner... No wonder it's so heavy!
I will clean up my act! Thanks for a chance at a lighter life!
I'm a follower on FB, I made the Margo bag in frolic and it's on LG's FB page. I carry measuring tape(keep one in my car too,never no when i'll need it),patterns, fabric, note book with the kids measurement in it. Thanks for the give away! bluewolf2@netzero.net
I've fanned lazygirl on facebook today. That's how I found out you were doing this give a way. Cool bag.
Joined Yahoo group today!
pkritchie@yahoo.com
Already a major fan of Lazy Girl and have made several for different people (of course I still don't have one for me!!) and I' a fan of Facebook already. I guess the most unusual thing I've had to pack around in my purse these days is all to do with the dog - leash, harness, muzzle, treats.....
I had a potato in my purse for about week. My nephew put it in there and I didn't notice it until I lost my keys and had to dump out my purse.
I am a fan on fb, and part of the yahoo group! I just added photos to the yahoo group.
I just finished a new claire bag and blogged about it
http://giggleysneedlesandpins.blogspot.com/2010/09/why-i-love-lazy-girl-designs-patterns.html
1) Been a member of the LGD Yahoo website for quite a while.
2) The most recent LGD purse I made was the Margo Bag. Photos of it on my blogspot at http://oceanpeg.blogspot.com/search/label/Margo%20Handbag
3) Some might say that the strangest thing I carry in my purse is a change purse full of AA batteries. Why? Because they are for my DSL digital camera that resembles a 35 mm SLR camera, which usually is in my purse, too. That way, I'll always be prepared if the batteries in my camera die out and can make a quick battery change when needed for the camera...
I also keep some of that Sweet & Low sugar substitute in my bag for when I go somewhere that doesn't have any handy for a cup of coffee or tea ot the like.
Forgot to say that yesterday I had a gallon size plastic bag in the top of my my purse that contained a pint of milk, a 4 ounce container of grape juice along with a piece of whole wheat bread and butter. Had lunch at the senior citizens nutrition center. Brought these items home with me. We had spaghetti and meatballs for lunch, which I had there along with a cup of tea. Had left my camera home so I'd have room for this stuff in my purse. Take my camera out when I go to the Nutrition Center for lunch for doing same on other times too. Purse? My homemade Miranda, of course. Photo of it on Joan's Yahoo website in my Oceanpeg/Peggy in NJ photo album there.
Another unusual thing is a screwdriver in the wintertime. Because the door on my car freezes up and I use the screwdriver to force the door open in zero degreese weather.
I am a member of the yahoo group.
Diapers. I am a member of LGD yahoo groups and have made the Margo. That is the one I carry now. Sorry I don't have a site with it posted.

Don't remember having anything unusual in my pocketbook. Nothing recently anyway. I am a fan on face book and a member of the Lazy Girl Designs yahoo group.
Hi, I am a member of the yahoo group and a facebook fan. I do love the lazygirl purses.
As far as unusual purse items, the funniest thing was once when I had my dog at the vet, we got a treat (for the dog), I put it in my purse and later my husband was looking for a mint in my purse. So he pulled out the treat, thinking it was a mint and almost put it in his mouth. It was funny, but you had to be there!!

You can usually find a water bottle along w/ some hockey pucks in my purse. I also am usually carrying my camera and some books to entertain us while we are waiting at the rink.
I am a member of the FB page as well at the Yahoo group.
I have yet had the chance to try one of the bags though:(
Hi! I am a FB fan and a member of the Yahoo group.
I have a Collection of LGD bag photos on Flickr, but I think the most recently finished one is my black & white Miranda: http://www.flickr.com/photos/sewamazin/3171201820/in/set-72157606977228196/
Margo, Claire and Maggie are in the to do pile soon ...
I don't know if this is unusual, but I use one of my Sassy's to carry my um, 'supplies' for the Bark Park - pick-up bags, doggie wipes, handi-wipes, leashes ....
I have been in the Yahoo group and also now a fan on FB Love the patterns and the ease of making the items. I find pacifiers to candy diapers, soda bottles, I carry my wonder wallet in there and my purfect pouch (which was my first LGD) and everybody loves the wallet when I pull it out to use it. I am a grandma so with 3 grandkids you can only imagine what is in there...lol Love the design
Tanya Watson
I still have my husband's dental xrays in my purse! I became a fan of Lazy Girl Designs when someone posted a photo of the Chelsea bag on another yahoo group. I quickly joined the Lazy Girl yahoo group and fell in love with all the wonderful patterns. Still working on a Claire for a friend. The last LGD pattern I made was the Maggie, which I love. Photo is here: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/LazyGirlDesigns/photos/album/1670840459/pic/909008773/view?picmode=&mode=tn&order=ordinal&start=21&count=20&dir=asc
Regina, I love your Happy Camper Lily.
I am a long time member of the LG yahoo group, and have posted pics there of some of my bags.
Since I teach a Bag Lady club monthly at 2 different shops I make a lot of bags, and everyone loves Joan's patterns. Need to get Lily so I can show her off and get the patterns ordered into the shops.
I regularly carry a lot in my purses.... include camera, tape measure, folding scissors, and one of the tools that I learned to use when working as an alterations tailor... a small pocket knife that is used as a seam ripper. I also carry my pair of color value filters (a red one and a green one on a chain.)I even make all my bags with a pocket especially for the filters.
Thanks for all the work and the give away.

I am a follower of the Lazy Girl Designs yahoo group as well as a fan on Facebook. I haven't a LGD purse yet but I am going to start with Maggie next weekend.
You never know what you will find in my purse...everything from toy cars and crayons (to keep my son amused) to dog treats and everything in between.

Jenness in Tucson
I belong to the Lazy Girl Yahoo group and have been a fan of Joan's patterns for several years. Made the Gracie purse first and its still a favorite of mine. Haven't tried the Lily yet; right now I'm making a whole bunch of Margos!
Sheryl in AZ
Lets see...I am a Lazy Girl memeber. I have made numerous Lazy Girl purses...my first was the Towne Purse. Have lots of LG Patterns that have not been made! I have already added Margo and Lily. But, I sew with two friends I know would love the Lily pattern! So, count me in and maybe I will win! Love the Lazy Girl Patterns.....
I just posted a comment but forgot to tell you how to reach me! sallyheydt@yahoo.com. Thank you so much!!
My most recent LG is Margo - loved that zipper! Have lots of LG bags & patterns, though. I am a LG yahoo group member. I want the Lily!

nancyreis75007@yahoo.com
I am a member of LGD designs yahoo and facebook groups. I can't post a pic of the Towne purse I made,because I gave it to my mom! It was my first effort at quilting, and it turned out great. The weirdest thing I've carried in my purse lately is hot peppers from the farmers market for my 86 y/o dad. I sure would love to win Lily...I'm dying to make her!
browneyedmom58@aol.com
baseballs!?! hilarious! :)
I carry diapers and all sorts of interesting bits designed to keep a toddler clean, happy, or fed. :)
cute purse.
I am a member of the LG Yahoo group. I have at least 2 LG patterns but can't seem to find the time to sew for me....But I promise to really SOON! Please enter me for the Lily Patter give away.
Thank you very much.
I love the lazy girl patterns and have made several. I am a member of the lazy girl list and posted my margo pic there but couldn't find it. (I only used 2 colors so maybe it it didn't count to be there.) http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SewingGiftsOnTime/photos/album/1737662914/pic/list?mode=tn&order=ordinal&start=61&count=20&dir=asc there are 3 pics of it on the Sewing gifts on time list.
I try not to carry weird things in my bags (lol) Haven't since DD was little.
Karol
karolsax@yahoo.com
I am part of both groups. The strangest thing I have ever had in my purse is a guinea pig. I had to have my hands free and figured he'd be safe in there, so I stuck him in. Their little poops are hard so I didn't worry about that. He was only in for a couple minutes but alot of things had nibble marks on them--to see if they were tasty!
Ok - here we go! I LOVE Joan and her designs and I've made so many of different bags already. And I can't wait to get my hands on the new pattern and make Lily as well! Here's a link to some I've made before http://snipurl.com/137pbp and if you click around there you'll find more of the lazy patterns.
I've been with the yahoo group for a couple of years and of course i'm liking (since there's no love-button to click) all things lazy on facebook too!
And now for the confession part... the strangest, weirdest, most unusual thing in my bag... hmm.... that would be last week when I had a big tupperware full of home made bread dough! =)
Hoping that gets me all the entries and a big bunch of luck (and Lily...)!
Lovisa
(l o v i s a e @ g m a i l . c o m (just remove the spaces)
I am a big fan of the lazy girl patterns but have made only one. Each and everyone one of them are darling! I just became a fan on facebook. The weirdest thing I carried in my purse was probably a box of live bugs when I was still homeschooling and my son wanted them for his collection-thankfully, none of them escaped!
love LGD and have made a few bags, would love to try the new one for my teenagers. Most unusual thing I have carried is probably swimming goggles
I follow face book. I love making purses and bags. Beth in Co
Let's see - dog treats, quilt blocks (to match fabric), glucometer, parts (so that I get the right one) for various machines, rocks & fossils (I collect), books... the list goes on. I had to get a bigger purse because I still need a place for my keys and phone.
I am part of the Lazy Girl Yahoo group.
carriemak@aol.com
I've been wanting to make one of Joan's nifty bags...have a fabric stash tucked away for years now as I haven't had time to sew (my first love) since I started teaching decorative painting! I think this is just the ticket to get my sewing machin whirring again!
I'm already a follower on Facebook & get the updates from the blog, just joined your blog & keeping fingers crossed I win ;) Thanks for offering this giveaway!
The most unusual thing I found in my purse the other day was a Lego guy. I swear they multiply in my house. I find them absolutely everywhere. :)
Joan's bags are the best. I have made several and her instructions are so easy. Loved her videos on Kaye Woods. At this time I can't spend money on my hobby so winning this would make me day. The most unusual thing in my bag these days is money!!
Debbie in Wichita
The most unusual things I've carried in a Lazy Girl purse was musket balls, flints and black power. My husband is a 16th century reenactor and needed extra brought from home. Judi

I have been carrying a very small purse since my last homemade one died. (I need to get busy don't I?)
In my little purse I have been carrying around a small, uniform, rock. I picked it up thinking I would crochet around it...in the style of Resurrection Fern. Thanks for a chance to win a new pattern so I can make a new purse. :)
I am a member of Lazy Girls group.
Just joined the FaceBook group. Love the three Claires that I've made. Would love to do a Lily.
I am a member of the Yahoo group and the most unusual thing I've carried in my purse would be breakfast sausages wrapped in a napkin to take home for my dog. I also carry scissors and a measuring tape and my hubby thinks that's weird but I think most crafters carry them, don't they?
pioneer588@yahoo.com
I am already a follower of Lazy Girl; working on one of her patterns The Chloe Handbag...great bag..I carry a tape measure in my wallet....
The strangest thing that has been in my purse has been dog food...and my dog for a few seconds...lol.
I am also a fan on FB!
Thank you for having this giveaway! :)
I just joined the Yahoo group. I have been wanting to make a Lazy Girl purse for so long!
Just became a fan on FB. Would love to make a Lily bag (in honor of my granddaughter, Lily Pearl).
Already a Facebook Fan and have made tons of Lazy Girl purses. Would love this pattern to add to my collection. The other day I carried my old high school yearbook from 1967 in my purse.
Am a fan of lazy girl. Infact, I just got my
Margo and Claire pattern. So excited to have gotten those and ambicious to begin the two!!!!
I hate to say it, but the craziest thing I carried around in my Chloe purse has been my dog. He hurt his toes and couldn't walk but wouldn't let me carry him. So, I scooped him up as I dumped everything else out and plopped him in my Chloe.
I am a Facebook Lazy. :-)
I was so excited to see this pattern! I have made several Towne purses, and love the look of this one. I have been known to carry vegetables in my purse to give away to friends when I see them. I would LOVE to add this pattern to my growing collection.
I am a Yahoo Lazy
Here is a Chlesea I made. LOVED it through the summer.

I just became a fan on Facebook. I love your purses and hope to make one soon! I recently had bottles of bubbles from a wedding in my purse!
OH gosh I keep of lot of silly things in my purse I guess one thing is my garmin I take it off my window & put it back in my purses when I'm shopping so it won't get stolen. Ketchup, tarter, sauce packets etc. Brochures Of lots of things, sewing kit. I love Lazy Girl Designs I've made over 25 Wonder Wallets for gifts. I would love the lilly pattern. Yours are so very pretty, the numbers one is very different & unique I love it.
I don't how to put a pic in. Thanks, Shari
This purse is on my list to make - I have the pattern and material to make it's "sister bag", the Margo bag. The strangest thing I have ever carried in my purse might be "vanilla bean pods". My daughter gave them to me because I wanted to make vanilla sugar.
Linda Van Der Werf
Cowboy Woody underwear, heelie wheels, and antiobiotic for my chickens.
Just joined the Yahoo group! I am traveling right now so - dog fanny pack (which contains water, bags, pet bowl, extra leash), camera, my stuff; watercolor journal with paints and brushes, dried yucca blossoms, mp3 player and rocks. Need to make a pack for my dog. The stuff is getting heavy.
Hi There: Great contest for a cute purse pattern.
So, I became a follower of Lazy Girls on Facebook this morning.
I have been in the yahoo group for quite a while.
Here's a link to a pic of a Miranda day bag I made http://groups.yahoo.com/group/LazyGirlDesigns/photos/album/1629707228/pic/468373050/view?picmode=&mode=tn&order=ordinal&start=1&count=20&dir=asc
And, unusual things in my purse - full sized tubes of sunscreen (son plays water polo)
Don't know if it is so unusual, but I sometimes have stitchery or knitting or crocheting projects in my purse. I have been eying this pattern ever since Joan started showing it. jonesjo@gmail.com
I think that all of the versions of the Lily Purse that I have seen are spectacular. What a versatile design
I don't mean to carry anything really unusual, but I'm always surprised what I find in the bottom of my purse........ fabric swatches and yarn swatches that were not there when I got to the store mysteriously show up weeks later in the bottom of my purse!
While working I always carried a screwdriver in case I needed to work on the computers. Being a Nana I carried things for entertainment--crayons, papers, and usually something with which to cute. Love this bag. Just bought a lazy girl pattern today but not this one.
Thanks
Thank you for the chance to win.
I too love Lazy Girl designs. I carried a clothespin recently since I was looking for a certain size and someone at work actually needed one.
I love Lazy Grl designs. I have made several, most recently the Runaround Bag. I am looking forward to making the Lily Pocket as Christmas gifts. Most unusual item in by bag...my lunch.

The most unusal thing I have had in my purse was a pair of socks. I usually walk at lunch and for some reason I put my used socks in my purse instead of my tote bag.

The most unusual item I have recently had in my bag (purse) was a banana peel. There was no place for me to dispose of it and I was in my husband's bosses car; so I put it in my bag and then forgot about it! I had to give my bag a good cleaning as well as many items that were nearby.
I have carried many unusual things in my purses that seem crazy to everyone else! Like a Leatherman tool (very handy), a metal tape measure, leftover buns from lunch to bring home for the dog (he even likes them when I forget to give them to him the first day), my bingo dauber is in there right now.
Thanks for the chance to win!
I was at a bridal shower and we were asked for the oddest thing in our purses - all I could come up with was 2 very strange obituaries for people I didn't even know!
I'm a fan of Lazy Girl Designs on Facebook.
I think I've only got a picture of my newest Margo bag - here's a link:

Hi! I'm already a Facebook fan of Lazy Girl--I love seeing all the photos of bags folks have made. This bag pattern is really FUN and I would love to win it!
My purse is pretty light right now, but I do have M & M containers from church in it. Our youth use these containers as fund raisers as they are perfect for quarters--although the kids really like the green stuff!
Have fun sewing--I have several projects to work on this week, including a wall hanging for my Mom's birthday on Sunday; she will be 86 years young!
I've done several Lazy Girl bags. Just finished a Wonder Wallet to go with my new Sassy Bag. This Lily has really caught my attention. I've been looking for a bag with a single shoulder strap.
Thanks for the giveaway.

The strangest thing I have carried around in my purse? Let me see...currently I only have diaper coupons...why? I dont know..my kids are 9 and 13. hee! In the past, I have had anything and everything the kids do not want to carry!
I have made three Whimsy bags and one zippered perfect pouch! I love them.
You can see my horse one I made for my niece here...

Thank you.
I've been a Facebook friend of Lazy Girl Design for a while now. Love seeing what other Lazies are up to.
I've been a member of Lazy Girl Design group on Yahoo for even longer and shared some of my bags and Lazy Bags!
I've been carrying around a tiny light bulb in my purse forever. I can't seem to find one like it anywhere!
I am an adoring fan on FB and the Yahoo groups. I have sewn up the LG tote pattern for my laptop, but I had to increase the patter to fit it! http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=30009124&l=8cf1a31dcc&id=1558209633
I can't say I've ever carried animals or dragons in my purse, but recently it harbored golf balls, running shoes and sweat bands, cheer poms for football games, lesson plans for teaching, markers and pens, and wood inserts for a tiered plate craft project. I think I might have had my wallet, but definitely NOT my glasses! (You haven't seen them have you??) :) Can't wait to hear who the lucky winner is!

I carry my G'daughters everything! Lately it's been hair do-dads and barbies ;) Quite the show when I have to dig it all out to write a check! :)

I love LG Patterns. I have yet to buy my Lily. The most unusual thing I have ever carried in my purse was a container of live worms for fishing!
Don't ask! Thanks for the giveaway!

I love Joan's designs & find her patterns very easy to follow. The most unusual item in my purse lately is probably my hubby's large, heavy tape measure for when we are shopping & need to measure something. I am a member of Lazy Girl Yahoo group & a fan on Facebook.

I didnt leave my contact information on here, but is a good thing as I have been getting all my quilting buddies hooked on Lazy Girl Designs. They all love them. While cleaning out my purse the other day I had popcorn, candy, bubbles and all the other grandkids items plus my soda's and other LGD accesaries like the wonder walet and purfect pouch sure glad the bubbles didn't open. I am on the Yahoo group and facebook so I am always following and seeing all the need items being made just makes you want to make more.Joan's designs are the easiest I have found to make and I even did my first zipper with her designs, I was so scared of doing it but I made one and kept on making them it was fun. Everybody thought I was crazy as I kept making them and didn't need all of them. The Lily is the one purse I don't have and would like to get either from here or will buy thanks for the giveaway.

Hmmm... let's see...
Recently, a huge zucchini (from friend's garden), a pair of slipper socks (always cold feet), my DGS's Lego robot creation ("Yes, Dear, I'll keep it safe for you!"), and the cut-off plug to my toaster (as a reminder... I needed to buy a replacement plug, but only remembered in the morning when I wanted to make toast)... just a typical day....
LOL!
Blessings!!!

Hi, Regina!!
*Love* your blog!
I'm following you!
Actually, I followed you here from Joan's... I've been a LAZY GIRL for a *long* time now!
LOL!!
Blessings!!!

Hey Regina, Thanks for chance to win your Lily purse. I too am a follower of the Lazy Girl site and love to see all the wonderful things that are made. I follow your site also. Love to win.
Thanks again.
OK, this must be the winner. We just moved and I was sorting, in the bottom corner of the pocket of my favorite bag was a pair of diaper pins. My youngest son is now 41 and the eldest is 46, so you can see how long these diaper pins have been there. Do they still make them??? I would adore to have the Lily purse, Lily was
the name of my most special Aunt, and it would bring happy memories each time I used the bag. Besides that
if I can still find the diaper pins, I would transfer them to this new bag.
I am a member of the Lazy Girl Designs Yahoo group and a Face Book fan. I haven't had anything unusual in my hand bag for a long time so I can't remember what I might have had in there that was unusual.

I joined! Please put me in the running! I love the Lazy Girl Designs.
I carried a receiver's glove in my purse for one of the football players last night.
I am a member of the LGD yahoo group and have made more Wonder Wallets than I can count in a year! My latest LG is a Town bag that I use for a laptop tote. I had to alter it a tad but it's great. I used some hand printed fabric I bought in Key West-too snazzy for words. Great bag Regina, as informative as your posts on Yahoo.
I'm a member of the LGD yahoo group & that purse is darn cute. Please enter me in the contest!
Somthing unusual in my purse..... probably nothing since my purse is dinky little because I just don't want unusual things in it :) Please enter me in the contest anyway?
I became a fan on facebook AND put up a photo of my Chloe. Please enter me to win the cute cute cute Lily.
A piece of chewed gum, rolled around in my purse longer than I would like to admit. I am a fan on Facebook, love LazyGirl
