Chic Diaper Bag




I created this bag out of Tina Givens line, there are four pockets inside and one zipper pocket on the opposite side. One cell phone pocket on the strap. This is a fun bag to carry around diapers and still look hip and young!

Make-Up Bag


This little travel bag was created from some scraps and vintage gross-grain ribbon and an orange zipper from the 60's.

Orange Tote

A nice comfy tote with 4 pockets inside and a magnetic snap for the closure. Measures 20" wide and 10" high.
I used an antique red button from the UK, 1950's, and a cream lining which is lined with interfacing for stability and top-stitched.

Gonzaga Tag Blanket



Here is a cute blanket for a little girl. There are fun silky ribbons for Payton to rub when she is ready to take a nap. This blanket is made out of 100% cotton which has been pre-washed. On the reverse side I used white fleece, which is a very soft fabric.

GU Bag for Angela!






Angela contacted me and asked if I would create a diaper bag and a Diaper Bag On the GO! How could I say no? Anyways, she wanted the GU material on the outside so I used a bottom weight blue for the lining for more stability and SUCCESS!

Handbag for Erin




My sister's birthday is coming up and she desperately needs a new bag. She is the type of person who will wear the bag out till it dies and crawls away into the forest. Since her birthday is coming up I thought I would dip into my stash of fabric and see what I can come up with and here it is!

I used a wool plaid for the outside (old Halloween material from a pirate costume I made for a friend) And a cotton print for the lining - I know what you are thinking...dogs!? Well my sis, God bless her, loves...loves dogs and she is always rescuing them and then loving them so much she keeps them. So I thought it would be cute to have something personal in her special handbag.
