Golf Puns

I recently picked up some Derwent Inktense blocks, which are india ink in the form of solid, pastel-style sticks. Basically, you lay the color down on your canvas, then wet them like a watercolor pencil (or you can do it in another order, like wetting the brush and then picking up the pigment straight off the block). Once it dries, it's entirely permanent.

And not just on paper - it's also entirely permanent on natural fiber fabrics. Which means that after picking these up on a whim, I ended up getting into an entirely new branch of crafts: customizing tote bags. I made this one for my sister, because she's having some trouble with purses with her elbow still on the mend:

My dad saw it at a recent gathering and complained that he hadn't received any tote bags, so I made him a couple to give him this weekend for Father's Day featuring golf puns. Here's one (with his name censored out):
