New Bag for Sale!

I love having a day off, it gives me time to do some sewing in a relaxed setting, usually in my comfy clothes.  Today I pulled out some of my favorite black and white fabric.  I made this great bag with inset handles which makes it fun to carry.  The best news is that this bag isn't spoken for!  I am selling this bag for $75 if you are interested let me know. This has been a popular fabric so it could go fast!  Or I may change my mind an keep it myself! 

Inside is all black with two pockets on one side.

What's Black, White & Red All Over?

I had a request for a large bag that was mostly red with white and black.  It is very hard to find an interesting red print, but I found this great Asian inspired print that works great for a large bag.

I found this red polka dot fabric that works great for a fun interior.  I made lots of pockets so there is plenty of room to hold everything you could possibly carry.

Blue Jeans & Bling

My sister, Tricia, is involved in a volunteer program called The Junior League of St. Paul, which is an organization of women that volunteers around their community.  On February 28th they are throwing their annual event called 'Blue Jeans & Bling' which is a fundraising event to benefit kids.  There will be a silent auction and I decided to contribute one of my bags to hopefully start a bidding war and raise some money for the cause.  
Tricia really likes my bags with the inset handle so I picked this bright and cheery print perfect for spring.
The inside is a navy blue with white polka dot.
Check out the JLSP Blue Jeans & Bling event and come if you can, it's for a great cause, it's going to be a lot of fun and of course I will be there taking part!
