GO GREEN!


Here's my latest creation in the bag/purse department! This one is different from my other patchwork totes, and comes with a matching wallet. It is for sale in my Ebay store:


Back to the sewing room to clean up the mess!

ANGEL TOWELS IN BLUEWORK

This set of Angel days of the week kitchen towels was part of a special order from my store on Ebay. The buyer wanted one set in Redwork, and another set in Bluework, so was happy to oblige her. I like the custom special orders!

Oops! I didn't take pictures of each towel, but they all are as cute as this one! You can go to my Ebay store to see the ones in Redwork.

BOUGHT SOME NEW FABRICS!

I saw these fabrics a couple days ago, and just had to buy them with plans of making purses/bags out of them. What do ya'll think?? With Summer upon us, I was thinking flowers and bright colors! Now just have to get back to the sewing room and make them.

Thanks for visiting my blog!

Another project finished!

Here's a wallet I made out of 2 different denims for my youngest son's BD coming up next week. Sure hope he doesn't see these pictures. I don't think he's ever been on my blog, so should be okay sharing these pictures.

Am putting a gift card in one of the slots inside, and now I've got togo to the post office to mail it.

Thanks for visiting!

LAVENDER ROSES THIS TIME!

MODA LAVENDER ROSES FABRIC!

My sister, Jerre, my niece and I all went to a couple more of the quilt shops on the Bluebonnet Patchwork Trail Shop Hop yesterday and I found the perfect button for this lavender rose bag. We had a real good time, and saw lots of beautiful quilts, great fabrics, wonderful inspiration for new projects. Bought a few fat quarters, a new Moda charm pack, and another pattern book for bags/purses/totes........stay tuned to see more.
I am really enjoying making all of these purses/totes and here is one from Moda fabrics called Sanctuary by 3 Sisters (sooooo appropriate, since I am always talking about us 3 sisters.) It will be for sale in my store on ebay too! Great detailing on this one; notice the side pocket for your sunglasses, and front pocket for your keys or cell phone.
Go to my Ebay store to see more pictures of the details:

DISAPPEARING PURSE/BAG

This new purse/bag has mysteriously disappeared to my sister's house!

When I showed it to her the other day, she told me it needed a BIG funky button on the tab closure. I told her...."well buy the button...and it's yours." You can't see it in the picture, but it has 2 side pockets just big enough for cell phone & sunglasses.

She bought this button (which she just pinned on for the pictures) and now the purse is gone......and all I have are these stupid pictures! Ah! the LOVE of sisters! (just in case you think this is over...it's not...she has to make me a new funky fabric patchwork blouse in exchange for this bag!)
