Old fashioned

So we have a new computer and I am struggling to figure everything out.  Above, I am converting an old Samsonite computer that I found at a thrift shop into a sewing caddy for traveling back and forth to my quilting group.  My intention is to have all of my fabric, sewing notions, rulers, books etc. in designated places inside-pockets, and elastic band or whatever I can invent.  I saw one at a quilt show last fall.  The exterior is so nice that I just wanted to put something on the top and not paint the entire case.  This is supposed to be the "grandmother's flower garden" square. More to come on this. The reason I labeled this blog the way I did is because I think I must still be quite old fashioned as the transfer of files which the Mr. did for the most part was not something I was able to understand.  I still like a manual which gives you step by step instructions and tells you what each step will enable you to do or accomplish.   It is how I learned nearly everything and when  I ask "why?"...I need an answer other than "I don't know".  You just do things and don't know why apparently or need to know why?

That explains my absence from the blog.

So my cat, Coalette is found here sleeping on my table in my wooden bowl.  Just had to snap her.
