Pursapalooza 2008!

So I am very excited to announce that I am having my very first purse party on December 7th!  There is lots and lots to do before then so I don't mind the bad weather, just more encouragement to stay in my warm jammies and sew.  Today I spent the whole day sewing since I just got some new fabric in the mail (YAY!).  I am slowly but surly building up my stock for the party so if there is anything you see that you want or if there is anything you would like specifically let me know so I can have it at my party.  If you would like to come to my very first pursapalooza email me so I can give you more details.

Love this new fabric!

I added a ribbon detail between the two fabrics to give it a more finished look.

Check back later for more previews and updates of pursapalooza!

It's black & white

So I just found a great black and white print and it looks great as 

the lining of this diaper/work tote.

Here's a little better view of what it looks like from the inside.

Inside there are 4 open pockets, two on the long side and one on either small end.  

The outside of the pocket is the pattern with the inside being solid black.

So I also added a new feature to this bag.  Inside there is a hidden zipper pocket, 

the pocket is nice and large.

This bag hasn't been spoken for so if you are interested, let me know it's $65.

What's black white and purple all over? Margaret! Margaret loves these colors so I made her up a couple of small pouches (as she calls them) for her rather large new bag she just got.  At first they were just going to be black and white but in the last minute I added the purple stripe, they are lined with the same purple fabric as well.
