Bunny Canvas Bag

Have I told you I love bunnies?  Someone refers to me as his bunny :o) … and I collect bunnies.  I also really love Fitz and Floyd pieces and salt and pepper shakers , so therefore I have a small collection (so far) of Fitz and Floyd bunny salt and pepper shakers!  whew!  I’ll share them with [...]

Amy Butler and Canvas Bag

I used 2 lovely, co-ordinating, paisley Amy Butler fabrics and combined that with canvas for a new bag.  It has a pocket running along the front and back and pinned down with a covered button.      Although the canvas holds its shape nicely I did use some heavier fleece interfacing as well.  I’m pleased with the look.  It may find [...]

Geisha Girl Bag/Tote

When I purchased this Michael Miller’s fabric with the gorgeous geisha girl I wasn’t sure how I would use it, but I had to have it because of her lovely face and the vibrant colours.   I’m so pleased at the result of the bag I have sewn this week.  The panel itself is large but I’m [...]

Springy Stripes and Flower Purse - Amy Butler Fabrics

I used different lovely Amy Butler fabrics for the exterior of the purse and a coordinating yellow/white pattern cotton for the lining.  It keeps its form nicely because the interfacing is a medium weight fleece.  A handmade felt flower pin sits pretty on the purse or it can be removed and worn to bring together the look.  It [...]

But…in the meantime here is a Felted Ditty Bag pattern I found at straw.com that has some [...]

WinniethePooh Recycled Bag

Here is another bag I’ve made. I truly have become addicted to making bags. As I make one another idea comes to mind. With all these bags I’ve been making I couldn’t believe we were stuffing extra sweatshirts to take with us into grocery bags! I had a green garbage bag full of shirts and [...]

Another bag! Summerstripe Bag’n Tote

I think I’ve caught the bug! I know I have caught the bug! The bag bug… I am wanting to spend my “spare”’ time (not to be confused with time made to spare because I’m not doing something I SHOULD be doing). I had fun with this one. The fabric is wonderful. Its MY bag [...]

A New Beach Bag/Tote

After my 3 hour drive back home from Waterport today I was just dying to do some crafting. Even though it was Victoria Weekend I guess I left early enough before everyone else hit the roads so the traffic was good. That must be why I had time to think of what I would do [...]
