Library Tote - Asian Fans

Tue, 22 Dec 2009 15:51:31 -0500

$44.00
This is a beautiful style of bag. It's slim but roomy, it's soft but sturdy, it's flexible yet structured. It looks like a purse, acts like a handbag.

The design of this bag is divine. I carefully patchwork the outside fabrics and I love the stripe down the side. It's a bit unexpected, a touch glamorous.

The bag is padded and lined in canvas, so it's both soft *and* sturdy. The handles are a wide 1.5" and padded as well - this bag is so comfy to carry!

It's a skinny bag so it lays flat when just a few things are in it, but stuff it full and it molds to what's inside. I love using this style as a purse - everything stays organized and right where I put it!

This fabric features beautiful Asian fans and soft flowers in muted tones. A bold red stripe with gold highlights and a bright yellow bottom with shimmering gold flowers draw out the lighter colors of the fabric, while the black and gray background help keep it dark and elegant. Inside is a creamy canvas lining to compliment the lighter wood tones of the fabric. I love how this bag is both soft and bold, light and dark, and 100% classy!

I called this a Library Tote because I imagined these lovely fabrics with this scrumptious design nestled next to a stack of books, its owner sipping coffee and scribbling notes before heading out for the night with friends. It's a versatile little bag. Carry home your library books, use it as your purse for the office, bring it out on the town at night.

Between the careful sewing, the high quality and fabulous fabrics, the softness, the sturdiness, the wide and padded straps, the unexpected design - this is definitely one of my favorite purses.

Approx: 11"w x 2"d x 12"h. Lined with canvas, outer fabric is high quality, 100% cotton.
Wipe with a damp cloth to clean. I wouldn't put it in the dryer. Exact pattern placement on fabric may vary slightly from the item shown. Made in a smoke-free home. Let me know if this is a gift and I'll put in a special note from you!

Farmer's Market Bag - go green with this reusable grocery bag

Tue, 22 Dec 2009 15:51:31 -0500

$35.00
Go green with this reusable grocery bag!

I designed this bag to be a great addition to our trips to the local Farmer's Market and it works beautifully as a grocery bag as well, with its deep, roomy base. This fun fabric with bell peppers, tomatoes, squash, onions and more fits in nicely among all the fruit and veggie stands at the market!

This bag doubles as a reusable grocery bag in between Farmer's Market trips and rolls up small to make it easy to carry around. I have a small-ish purse and I STILL always keep one with me and use it every time we go shopping or when I find myself needing an extra bag - which can happen at the most inconvenient time when you have kids! Did you know IKEA doesn't provide bags anymore? I was glad to have my grocery bag in my purse when I found that out after check out!

This bag is more than your average floppy canvas grocery bag. It's sturdy - lined in denim, the straps are padded and around the top is extra fabric for durability - so this bag works as more than just an *extra* bag. I designed it to roll up small to be perfect as an extra bag, but that doesn't mean you have to use it that way! Use it as an everyday tote, or bring it to the library to hold your books, take it to the pool, the beach or the ball game. It's a versatile bag in a great size!

A deep blue denim lines this bag, and has a fresh look with the light, bright colors. I love the assortment of veggies on the front and the green trim makes it all pop!

Makes a great gift - especially for that hard-to-shop-for friend! Everyone goes grocery shopping, right? Get two - one to carry with you and one for your car! Help save the environment and skip the plastic and paper grocery bags!

Approx. 12"w, 5"d, 12"h. Lined with heavy denim, outer fabric is high quality, 100% cotton.
Wipe with a damp cloth to clean. I wouldn't put it in the dryer. Exact pattern placement on fabric may vary slightly from the item shown. Made in a smoke-free home. Let me know if this is a gift and I'll put in a special note from you!

Pin Cushion with Thread Catcher - perfect for your craft room

Tue, 22 Dec 2009 15:51:31 -0500

$20.00
This pin cushion with thread catcher is the perfect addition to your craft room! Store pins next to your sewing machine, iron, cutting table or couch and the bag is perfect for holding stray threads, scrap fabrics, crafting supplies and more.

The little loop inside is perfect for keeping your small scissors in reach. The trim around the top is more than decorative - it reinforces the top, helping to keep it open. This bag will sit nicely at the corner of a table as well, due to the straps connecting the bag to the pin cushion - the corner of the table can poke right through!

These are great for taking to crafting classes (there are never enough trash cans!), knitting circles, friends' houses, hook it over the arm of the chair at the kid's soccer game - they're great when you're on the go!

This black and white fabric is so fun! Sweet line drawings of onions, peas, radishes and tomatoes adorn this fabric, both white on black and black on white. I love the look of this fabric!

Now you have the option to have REAL LAVENDER FLOWERS inside the pin cushion! Include the Lightly Lavender listing (http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=23372568) with your Pin Cushion order to add lavender to your pin cushion for only a dollar! Makes a great gift!

Crayon Bag - Holds crayons and paper for on-the-go entertainment

Tue, 22 Dec 2009 13:44:26 -0500

$12.00
Ready to draw! This adorable crayon bag holds eight crayons and a small coloring book or paper folded in quarters. Easy to refill!

Crayon Bags are lined for durability and the straps are perfect for little hands. Your child can even hang it over her shoulder like a purse! Each bag holds 8 crayons and many pieces of paper, but you can also put pens in the sleeves or a book, pencils, toys etc. in the bag. Let your child's imagination rule!

I designed these bags to hold paper folded in quarters with plenty of room to spare so they are really easy to refill. The idea of fussy cutting paper to fit or finding a stock of tiny coloring books just the right size to have on hand made me a little crazy - with kids around it's nice to have things be easy!

These make great gifts. Keep a few on hand for future birthday parties, keep one in the car for appointments or long lines!

This bag has a cream background with alphabet letters all around and sweet drawings - it's fun to guess which letter starts each picture! The same fabric lines the bag. The fabric on the sleeves and handles is a modern brown with flowers and leaves - I love how chic the brown and the cream look together! All fabrics are high quality 100% cotton.

Approx. 5.5"w x 6.5"h.
Note: it does NOT come with crayons. If your house is like mine you have a billion crayons anyway and these ship flatter and cheaper without them! However, if you need crayons let me know and I will provide them because I'm just that nice.
Wipe with a damp cloth and soap. I probably wouldn't put it in the dryer. Exact pattern placement on fabric may vary slightly from the item shown. Made in a smoke-free home. Let me know if this is a gift and I'll put in a special note from you! Item comes with a piece of folded paper inside.

$12.00
Finally, a pot holder big enough to cover your hands!

This quilted, insulated pot holder is nice and big to keep even large hands safe from hot pans, it is pretty enough to be invited to the dinner table as a hot pad and has a loop to hang on the wall if you choose - you won't want to keep these guys stuffed in a drawer!

Its large size makes it perfect for double duty as a hot pad - I even had a customer get a few as smaller place mats when she eats on the couch or at her desk and has her plate in her lap. How clever!

This fun fabric with grapefruits, melons, oranges, lemons and limes brightens up the kitchen and I love the way the dark background really makes the orange and yellow colors pop!

The outer fabric is high quality 100% cotton, inside is a double layer of insulation so they really work!
