Double Pleat Tote

There are some new bags in the shop. These are Double Pleat Totes. They are the same as the Double Pleat Tote with Sash (which have sold out) but without the sash. I love these bags. They are probably one of my most favourite bags I've ever made. They are a great large bag that holds a lot of stuff but are still light weight. I especially love the wider straps. They're really comfortable on your shoulder when you carry a lot. They are made out of home dec weight fabric and 150z organic canvas. I am in love with this organic canvas. It's expensive but worth every penny. These bags here are made with fabric from Joel Dewberry's Ginseng collection which I absolutly love.



I am also working on some mini notebook holders. They are really cute and handy. They hold a little notebook and pen and has an extra pocket for receipts or coupons. I will hopefully have some posted today.

And lastly, I haven't forgotten about June's giveaway. I will be posting that hopefully in the next week I just haven't decided on the prize yet.

April Giveaway

I know, I'm really late with my giveaway this month. I've had a busy month finishing my quilt, sewing Easter dresses and keeping my shop stocked.
This month I am giving away a pink and brown dot large tote. It is great for when you have a lot of stuff to carry and makes an excellent diaper bag.
Just post a comment below about anything you like or don't like in my shop, any fabric that you are loving right now or any sewing or quilting blogs that you love (I'm always looking for new blogs to read). I have two bags to giveaway this month. The contest will end at 9:00 P.M. EST on Sunday May 4th.
Good Luck!

March Giveaway

March's giveaway is finally here. I know it was late this month, but better late than never. To enter the giveaway just post a comment on this post about what item you like in my shop, what fabric's you love right now or what style of bag or fabric you would like to see more of. The giveaway is running until March 31 12:00 P.M. EST. This month's giveaway is for a pleated market tote made from orange corduroy and Amy Butler's French Wallpaper. This bag is bright and cheerful for spring.

March Blahs

I know I haven't posted in a while, I think I have the March blahs. My motivation seems to have left me this month. This past weekend was better for me. I did get some more messenger bags done and a couple of new limited time totes. I will have to do some new wallets soon as I am getting low so hopefully by the weekend I'll have some. I think I need to do March's giveaway soon, so stay tuned for that. Here is a pic of one of the new totes just listed in my shop. There will be a few more coming soon.

New Purse Design

I have finally got around to posting a couple of my new bags. This is one of my new designs for 2009. I really like this bag. I have been using mine for a couple of weeks and just love the size. I hope to get some more posted this weekend. Here are some pics of the ones up now.

January Free Bag Giveaway

I have decided this year to offer a free giveaway every month. January's giveaway starts today.
You can win this free large tote by simply viewing my store and when you're done come back here and tell me what your favourite item is.

End of Year Sale

Well the holidays are finally over. It seems like so much work building up to them and it's over so quickly. I am back to work today but at least it's another short work week.
I am having an end of year sale in my shop until mid January. There are lots of items to choose from. I'm clearing out for some new items hopefully coming in January or sooner. There are only one of each item in the sale, so if you want it don't wait. Here is a sample of a few sale items.
