5 out of 5 starsThis item is for a friend, to go with the cat tote bag I purchased as well. The two items go together nicely. Cute cat pattern fabric! Well made zipper pouch for cosmetics. Nicely done, as always by Merrie.

5 out of 5 starsOh my goodness! FISH with lips/lipstick? Cutest fabric ever! Love the three pockets: one on outside and two on the inside to hold cell phone, pens, etc. Quality is evident.

5 out of 5 starsAnother beautiful quilt from Merrie! A little surprise, unique touch on the reverse side of this quilt. This makes it a "one of a kind, not to be duplicated" special item. Very happy with my purchase!

Handmade Quilts, Quilted Tote Bags, Quilted Wall Hangings and Travel Bags from Asheville NC
Every item in my shop is handmade by me. They are all one-of-a-kind items. One of the best things about this is that I get to design and create each item, selecting the perfect fabrics to create a beautiful and unique piece of art.
I learned to sew as a little girl, making my own clothes through college. I never realized until much later how special it was to wear custom-made clothing. Sewing was put on the back burner for years as life got a little too busy. Since relocating to the vibrant city of Asheville in Western North Carolina, I've rediscovered sewing and quilting (and shopping for beautiful fabrics). I love creating quilts that are simple, clean and modern.
Making a quilted piece is an investment of time and money ... starting with the design, selecting the (oh so beautiful) fabric, washing and caring for the fabric, cutting and piecing the quilt top, making the quilt sandwich with cotton batting, quilting the quilt and finally adding the binding. Each quilt takes a lot of time to become a quality piece of craftsmanship. But it's a fun and creative process that results in a one-of-a-kind piece that has been handmade especially for you.
I have two other Etsy shops. One where I offer my art and acrylic paintings - ArtbyMerrieD (www.etsy.com/shop/ArtbyMerrieD) and the 2nd shop where I sell crocheted hats, beanies, headbands and scarves - YarnHeadz (www.etsy.com/shop/YarnHeadz).

Shipping
Item(s) will be shipped to the buyer's Etsy address, unless otherwise specified, so please double-check to make sure the shipping address you provide is correct. I ship to USPS-confirmed addresses verified as a valid address and recognized by the US Post Office.
If you would prefer to have your order shipped to an alternate address, please advise at checkout (or separate convo). Items returned due to an incorrect address that you provide will incur additional charges to reship.
Items listed as "ready to ship" will usually be shipped within 1-3 business days after payment confirmation. US Priority Mail usually takes 2-3 days for arrival.
Once your order is accepted by USPS, we cannot be responsible for any loss or damage. If you'd like to protect against something happening to your package during shipping, please purchase insurance. We'll do what we can to resolve any issues but please know that if your package is lost or damaged, it would be difficult (and in most instances, impossible) for me as a seller to replace or repair the item. To protect against this possibility, we recommend purchasing insurance. (Note: Insurance is not available to international customers.)
Any extra fees (or customs fees) for international shipping are the responsibility of the customer.
