Thank you for visiting! I hope I can be of service to you.
Summer is here! For the summer (June through August), I am offering a VERY LIMITED selection of items while I enjoy the summer out in the Pacific Northwest of USA.
If you saw something on Facebook or Instagram or in person that I made and you wish you had, please send me a message. I am happy to take custom orders and work on them while enjoying a view of the ocean.
I create quality products that are unique. I love playing with fabric and the process of creating a beautiful, functional product. I am not a fast sewer - I am a careful sewer - and my products are high quality because I am a careful creator. Read the reviews and you can see that people who have purchased from me agree that I make a great product. You are making a choice to have a one of kind item that is functional and beautiful. I offer tote bags, purses, clutches, wallets, composition book covers, and oven mitts. Well, really, if it involves a sewing machine, colorful fabric and some creativity, I am happy to make it.
I am also very easy to work with to create a custom item that meets your needs. I spent years involved in the design process and communication around building software and that professional skill is repurposed in the way that I will work with you to create your item.
And, well, if for some reason what you get did not meet your expectations, I'll often work to resolve the issue. If you scroll through my reviews, you'll find one person who was disappointed. But you can also find her review of how I turned that around to get a 5 star rating from her.
Check back as other items will be listed shortly and inventory changes. Ask me about custom work! Most of my offerings have been shaped by individual requests for items.

5 out of 5 starsWonderful pouch and fantastic shop! Margreta went above and beyond to make the pouches and ship them quickly. We love these pouches to hold snacks for our dog and attach them to her leash. Would definitely purchase from her again. Thanks so much!

5 out of 5 starsBeautifully made and intelligently designed to be just the right length for taking a 9x13 cake pan out of the oven safely. It is nice and thick, a really serious potholder, not just a cutesy toy. Lovely!

5 out of 5 starsI really never shop on ETSY and somehow stumbled across these handmade quilted sewn placemats. I think they are beautiful and artfully designed. I was surprised that they could be readily laundered. Now that I know that, they will surely be a fixture on my copper dining table. Margaret has been responsive and thoughtful as we discussed creating 4 additional placemats in the same color schema. I'm delighted all around.

About MargretaMadeIt
MargretaMadeIt - bags, purses, books covers, accessories,
I sew my items in my home studio which is a Dutch colonial home in a historic district. Our home electricity is purchased from a wind/solar supplier.
Our home is no longer pet free. We recently adopted from the shelter a 1 year old black male kitty who had been on the streets. He is not allowed in the sewing studio but does have access to the shipping station.
My fabrics are generally purchased from local quilt shops or from particular fiber artists. Some fabrics do come from other quilters and I wash all of my fabrics before they are used in the items you see in my shop.
My initial bags and purses and accessories featured Asian inspired fabrics - from Japan or from other sources. As I continue to create, I have expanded into cats and Celtic. While I don't live in Washington state, I grew up there and still spend time there (so, the Seahawk theme).

I am a mom and crafter. I have been sewing since high school. I started making quilts after college. I dabble with art quilts, but find that enjoy the more immediate timeframe of making bags and accessories.
