Tote Bag Craze

I was definitely in the sewing mood today (and now don't want to see my machine for the rest of the week!) and spent my time making more hobo sacks. And who said that they had to be made out of weird funky fabrics?

They can be made out of sailor stripes...
...colors of the sea...
...rose gardens...

It's obvious you also have a talent for making bags and totes. And knowing how well you sew, I'm sure they're very well made.

I'll be honest, I am one of your biggest apron fans, and I check more than once a day to see if you've added any to your shop. You have your apron and your bag followers...:)

Hi, Cherie! Charity got the dress today and is totally in love with it . . . and it fits her like a dream in the waist and bust . . . but falls off her shoulders and she's SO upset by that. I told her I may try to take it to a professional to see if they think any thing can be altered to make it fit her better. I'm not holding my breath . . . Do you custom make Titanic era dresses?! She'd love one just like this only smaller.

Where is the "colors of the sea" tote? I want to see more of that fabric - it's gorgeous!

Yaya Orchid,

You are to kind. =) I feel honored. Thankyou. =)

Hope Anne,

Unfortunately I don't do custom-made dresses. My older sister and I had a business for 7 years of doing custom sewing, but it got to be to demending for us with us pursuing music. Hope you can perhaps get it altered so it will fit her in the shouders!

Crystal,

That tote was sold yesterday in my etsy shop. I'm kind of thinking that I used up what was left of that fabric too.
