My Favorite Bag!

This is the only bag you'll need this summer!  The generous size is perfect to use as a purse, but large enough to throw your towel and a book in and head to the beach.

The pattern is My Favorite Bag by Kati Cupcake. I used fabric from Amy Hamberlin from her Marabella line.  The fabric colors are positively scrumptious. 

This tote bag has 6 pockets on the outside and six on the inside.  The inside lining is the same as the outside fabric.  The bag closes with a convenient magnetic snap.  Don't you just love the sash?!  Stop by and visit our Etsy shop - we have lots more where this came from!

Inspiration Workshop ala Gussy Sews!

I find a lot of my inspiration from nature, so this week's Inspiration Workshop from Gussy Sews was a good fit for me.  There are few things I love more than seeing what's new at my local farmer's market.  Doesn't it make your mouth water?

A New Favorite!

I have to admit- I love this purse more than any other purse I've ever made! I want to keep it for myself, but then that sort of defeats the purpose of having an Etsy store.  Just so you know, it was very hard for me to part with this fabric.

The pattern is Down Town from Kati Cupcake (Love her!). The fabric is by Sanae for Moda in their Oh MY! collection and is absolutely TO.DIE.FOR. The colors are chocolate brown, burnt orange, hot pink, cherry red, olive green, golden yellow, & a hint of white in the outline. The bag is fully lined with a large and small pocket in the interior and a magnetic closure. The handles are dark brown rattan and complement the fabric perfectly. The outside pocket is a generous size as well. The decorative buttons on the pocket give it the ultimate finishing touch! This is the perfect bag for all seasons!

 Here's a view of the back of the purse. I want you to be able to admire all of it's loveliness.
 I think these rattan handles are the perfect accent for this purse.  They go well with the tropical theme of the fabric, don't you agree?
 I know, I love the buttons too... probably even more than you do.
The interior is super fun,not to mention functional. Check out the pocket and magnetic closure. Please feel free to visit our Etsy shop for lots more loveliness!

Splish Splash!

Summer is here! Being born and raised in Southern California, my thoughts automatically turn to the beach, the pool, the lake... just about anywhere I'll need a bathing suit!

I've created Splash Bag's in several different patterns that are perfect for carrying your wet bathing suit and towel, without getting everything else in your bag wet! Please see our Etsy shop for a sampling of our gorgeous fabrics.

My 100% cotton drawstring splash (wet) bags are lined with 100% waterproof fabric and close with a double-drawstring cotton cord. They are machine washable and dryable. With my Splash Bag, you will never have a wet beach bag,suitcase or diaper bag again! They are perfect for your wet swim clothes, gym clothes, or soiled items - especially useful in your diaper bag.

This fabric is Woodland Delight by Paula Prass. The background is chocolate brown with vibrant colored flowers in pink, orange, & white.




Splash Bag Measurements:

11.5"(33cm) x 13”(30.5cm)

Most bags are made to order, so pattern placement may vary slightly. Please let me know if you’d like a different size or color combination. I'd be happy to customize a bag just for you!
