I found these beautiful cloth napkins and saw a bag in them.  Came out really well, and I made a zippered wristlet to match.  Definitely one of a kind! 

Disappearing 9-patch bag!  Sold  I made this at a local quilting groups meeting.  Had a lot of fun, I’m not a member, I don’t have the time.  Anyhow, I didn’t want to make a quilt, and saw another bag in the two pieces I made that day. 

And, this is my scrapbooking adventure, ha!  One of my friends came over with her scrapbooking tools and wisdom and we came out with these.  It was fun!  I wanted a “special” thank you card for the people that buy my bags. 

This polka dot bag is made from 3 cloth napkins, pretty neat!

This is a quilted bag, I did “stitch in the ditch”, it was fun!

This bag has sold, and when she got it, one of the screws had come out of the handle.  She sent it back to me and I made a different strap type handle.  She thought she would like that better and requested it.  I love the fabric and it looked great with the new strap too.  The brown fabric had to be changed because I didn’t have anymore of it and the strap needed to match because I’m anal like that.  But, the new brown fabric looked even better. 

The girl I made this for wanted some ribbon added to the bag, so I obliged.  I didn’t like the closure anyways and changed it.  Here is the new version.

This was made from a pattern, Bella Nonna, Happy Bag, it is quilted, so that was a fun experience.  My cousin is having a lil’ girl next month and she wanted pink and black, so there ya go!

I made this bag one day after working on another bag which is still not done, ha!  Anyhow, I needed something to make/finish that day to make myself feel better as weird as that sounds.  This bag is a very pretty green/brown fabric, with a wide strap.  The inner fabric is silky smooth and perfect for the inside of the bag. 

This bag has sold

I have four bags that I need to make for 4 different people, so I need to get crackin’ on those.   Oh wait, add another one to that list because my cousin wants a pink and black diaper bag, so yikes!  Busy.  I NEED to get these done because they were requested and I keep my word, so if I’m not adding to the blog then that’s what I’m doing, ha

Yep, another 3 fat quarters bag, maybe one day I’ll use four fat quarters, ha, ha!!!!  Anyhow, this is a gray colored type bag, and it’s real sturdy.  The main print has images of quarters, nickels and dimes, very different but cool.  The inner fabric is box speakers in a dot pattern, very different too, but cool.

I made this bag up one night and it came out so-so.  It really is a mixture of different styles, like messenger bag, clutch, tote/handbag like.  I really can’t describe it that well other than it’s a mixture of things, ha!

I had a vision, and it’s been done before, so I want to try my hand at it. 

Two Record Sleeves, Iron on Vinyl, cool liner and handles = Bag or tote

Fun!

I’ll have photos later, but I made myself a HUGE bag out of some cool Alexander Henry Frida Kahlo fabric.  I didn’t intend for it to be big, but it happened, ha!  It has the same shape as the two napkins bag, just about 4 times bigger.

I made this for a friend, she really liked it.  It’s fairly large, big enough to carry books

Since I don’t have all the fabric I need on a bag I’m currently working on, I’m going to make some bags out of napkins.  I’ve picked cloth napkins on sale from Target for so cheap.  So, we shall see how they turn out.  I found a neat pair today and I had a “vision”, ha!  So, by posting this, I will make sure to keep to my word as I’m very anal that way, ha!  Stay tuned!  ha, ha, ha
