I geeked out and decorated for Halloween this week. I realized I didn’t have a felt banner for my fireplace like I do for all other holidays 🤷🏼♀️ no idea why. So, I ran to the sewing machine to make one. I love how it turned out and specifically love the googly eyes peeking from the mummy wrap. Hope you are enjoying a lovely fall weekend. 😊🧡🖤 Teresa
Thank you Bagette Barbara for this great update. I want to visit this chapter too, they always seem to have great food to accompany the sewing! I love all the places they have donated bags, they are doing an amazing job donating to so many great groups that need bags. Keep up the great work ladies! :) Teresa

Hi Teresa--
The Edmonds, WA Chapter of the Green Bag Lady Project met on September 20, 2024 at the home of Bagette Kathleen.
Bagette Pamela said: “Hi there! A small but mighty group gathered for our September GBL sewing bee! It was a beautiful fall day and we took a tour of Kathy's gardens in the backyard!”
Bagette Susan keeps me posted about some of the local organizations the Edmonds, WA Chapter of GBL have contributed fabric bags to and/or have contacted to see if they need/want bags, which include the Edmonds Food Pantry, Path from Poverty, Cocoon House, and Hygiene Center.
I’m so proud of these Edmonds Bagettes. I can’t wait until I have another opportunity to go to Washington to sew and visit them. Thanks to Bagette Pamela for the photos.
Barbara💚
Coordinator, Maine Chapter GBL Project
Just over here making 6 dozen cookies for a potluck BBQ tomorrow. 🍪🍪 How about you? I made 2 different gluten free varieties: chocolate chip, coconut, pecan & apricot, oatmeal, white chocolate, pecan. Of course I had to taste test. Both ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ so good. Wishing you a sweet weekend filled with treats. 😊❤️💚 Teresa
Wishing you a lovely and relaxing weekend. I’ll be sewing, seeing some friends and spending time with Big Girl while she’s living at home for a bit. XOXO—Teresa
Do you have a high schooler who is in need of service hours, or one that is looking to get involved with voting this election season?
My daughter, Margaux, works at a national, non partisan nonprofit (new-voters.org) that works with students to run voter registration drives at their high schools. New Voters is actively looking for students to get out the vote at their schools.
Students can sign up to run a drive at their school. New Voters provides mentorship, onboarding, and (super cool!) prizes!
If you have a teen or know a teen who would be interested, please message me or email my daughter at margaux@new-voters.org

Guess who’s visiting me in Colorado and currently up at my cabin? It’s my bestie from the westie Harmony!❤️ We are having lots of fun running around, organizing my cabin and laughing a lot. We are off the dinner soon at our lovely neighbors. Sunday night we get to go see Indigo Girls at Red Rocks Amphitheater. Squeeeee! Hope you have a fabulous weekend too! 💕💕—Teresa 😊❤️🎶⛰️🌳☀️
Bagette Tami stopped by last week with 140 bags for me! Yes, 140 that she made all on her own! She's amazing like that. She uses the cutest and brightest color combos for some truly special bags. She the best and so happy she's not too far from me in Colorado. :) Thanks Tami--Teresa
Look at this sweet visitor to the flowers on my back deck. Here’s wishing you a delightful weekend filled with fun and laughter. XOXO—Teresa 🕊️🌸🌺🌼❤️🥰😊💛💕
Hello friends. I hope this finds you well. It’s been a beat. I was in California for 6 days visiting Harmony and then playing catch up this week. I had a delightful time seeing my “Bestie in the Westie” and selling pouches at a booth for Art in the Redwoods at Gualala Art Center. We got to have some fun on our way back to the Bay Area enjoying a lovely 3 mile hike in Armstrong National Forest. Those giant redwoods are such a glorious example of Mother Earth. Wishing you a joy filled weekend. XOXO—Teresa ❤️😊✈️ 🌳 ☀️🎨🏃🏼♀️➡️ (PS-no photoshop on this pic, just cool light reflections!)
