the tale of beth's bag

Once upon a time there were two bloggy friends who lived a world apart- flossy and Beth. Despite the distance they teamed up and did stuff together: wrote an article for Mix Tape Zine, submitted illustrations with matching themes, sent each other gifts, and even started an environmental blog together. Sadly, each of their lives got busy, the blog was never launched, Beth stopped blogging herself, and they lost contact (not the friendship however).

Two years later, Beth went shopping on flossy's Etsy store and bought herself a print called "Wilderness". So excited to hear from her old friend, flossy recalled an item that had been on her "to do" list for TWO YEARS! ... "Make a bag for Beth".

Beth had asked flossy to make her a messenger bag one day. This was very exciting, and flossy bought lovely fabric for the project, and even started, but then had to suddenly move towns, and got very busy... never getting around to finishing the bag.

Until....

flossy realised she would never get a good night's sleep again if she posted the print without the long forgotten bag.

So one day she kicked her own ass, and made the best bag she could for Beth.

Two weeks later, flossy was delighted and surprised to find a personalised video from Beth, so emotional and excited about her new bag (and the print... but mostly the bag that she had completely forgotten about), thanking flossy, and showing her how well her new bag suited her.

flossy could see how sincerely Beth LOVED her new bag, how well it did indeed suit her, which made flossy happy for the rest of the week and reminded her how great bloggy friendships are!

The End.
