Enjoyed some fun leftovers from winter on my run this morning. Hope you have a fabulous weekend. XOXO—Teresa
UPDATE: Edmonds, Washington Chapter
Bagette Pam said: “Okaaaay…..not to say our sewing bees revolve around food, but that would be an understatement?? We had Chile Verde (Kathy), Cornbread with Sage leaves, (Susan) and Plum-ginger cake with whipped cream and honey (Carla)! Ohhh, we did get some sewing done tooooo!! Please note my ironing station with a new board cover!!”
I’m so proud of these multi-talented ladies and happy to be their “Publications Manager” by providing updates. Thanks everyone. I hope that I can visit Edmonds this year and have another reunion with you.
UPDATE: Maine Chapter
Here is an update of the Maine Chapter of the Green Bag Lady for your blog.
Big hugs from Southwest Harbor, Maine.
Bagette Barbara, Maine Chapter Coordinator
MAINE CHAPTER UPDATE: On January 23, 2025, the Maine Chapter of GBL met at the Common Good Soup Kitchen in Southwest Harbor, Maine. Bagettes Julie and Kathleen, donning beautifully color coordinated clothing (not planned ahead), were busy Bagettes sewing kid size 12x12 inch fabric shopping bags. We completed 24 bags! We also made and hung a curtain panel for our brand-new cabinet to keep our GBL supplies.
HAPPY ANNOUNCEMENT: February 4, 2025 marks our 1st anniversary of meeting and sewing at the Common Good. Common Good’s Director, Debi, continues to welcome us to use the space, and we couldn’t be happier with all the locals and tourists we have met. It’s so much fun to spread the word about GBL and distribute our free bags to happy, grateful recipients.
Fun Things
Some happy things to share:
1 & 2) Bagette Ingeborg sent me (and my family) a super fun package from Holland. These were the cute things in mine: 2 tree ornaments, the windmill one is a replica of the windmill Big Girl and I went to in the town of Ruulo. (that's me working the windmill in photo 2, ha ha), some sewing machine paper clips (too cute!) and a lovely zip bag made by the even lovelier Ingeborg ❤️🥰💝🇳🇱
3) Some special order pouches for friends who play Mahjong and Ski 😊❄️
Photo Finish Friday
I took this photo while walking back from the mailbox this week. See Orion? It almost looks like a painting. Have a relaxing weekend. We are looking forward to dinner with friends tonight. Cheers—Teresa ❤️💕 ⭐️ 🌟 🌌

St. Patrick's Banner on Etsy!
Hey lovely people, I took your advice and put my St. Patrick's Day banner in my etsy shop! I have 4 of them for sale and you even get to choose the color of ribbon you like. They are so festive and include little metal shamrock charms. I'd love for you to have one! 😊 Teresa ☘️🇮🇪☘️🇮🇪
