meet JANE...

a NEW style of purse in my shop...

JANE!!!

but be warned, Jane is not Plain!!

I conquered my fear...

of ZIPPERS today!!!

one of my new year's resolutions was to finally figure out how to sew a zipper, they have scared me ever since 8th grade sewing class when Mrs. Be-otch made me sew one and then gave me a D!!!!
I HATED sewing back then, it's funny that my job is SEWING!

If only that teacher could see me now! :)

so, here are the first of several zippy pouches for my Etsy shop-

I have had sooooo many requests for these!
watch for more each day!

happiness...

I always wanted a VESPA scooter...

I see people zipping around on their cool scooters and I get soo jealous- I would LOVE one!! sadly, it is not practical for hauling 4 kids to their many destinations. BUT, I did find fabric that has the CUTEST vespa looking scooters, with stripes and dots, oh my!!!

Polly bag

I love this new bag-

I call her the "Polly" bag!!

I think I will make one for myself!!

P.S. Doesn't the top one look like American Crafts patterned paper??

so much fabric, so little time

life gets so busy some times-

all I want to do is make new bags!!

the BIRDIE bag

I made this cute bag today using the darling velvet iron-on bird by SEI.

it turned out so cute-
