I have had to put the brakes on. I have not been accomplishing much. Working a lot of days and to many ideas. I have one bag sitting here not finished because I can't get hold of the girl who wanted it with her name on it. She may lose out if I can't get hold of her soon. I also have a diaper bag going that I put aside because I couldn't stand it any longer and had to do a purse that the fabric was shouting, maybe screaming, at me. So it is done!!! I used the same basic Katti Lynn pattern and changed it a bit. No Chenille on this one. Just more little improvements. AND of course more ideas for the next one.
I also have a zipper purse in mind. This could be fun and maybe a bit out there. I just haven't decided yet. I am thinking I might tackle this one before Christmas. I also think there are members of my family and a couple friends that need to have bags for Christmas.
I am sorting stuff out (what a job) in my computer/sewing wanna be room. I have way to much stuff. The bad part is, most of it is sentimental stuff. A few craft projects that I want to try. A woven basket that is not finished and needs to be so I can use it. Two string art pictures that my mother had that look like a rainy, lazy afternoon thing to do. I could go on for a few more but let's just say I have tried a number of things that are fun.
Well I guess I need another cup of coffee before I dive into the sorting today.
This blog is mostly about my passion. Making bags. Of course life is not all about making bags and sometimes the outside world enters the bag world.
About Me
- Kathy
- I am a wife, mom, grandma and great-grandma. I love doing many crafts. Mostly I just like to be creative and use my own ideas. I don't usually buy patterns and I use my own interpretation of techniques. I started this blog to have a place to put ideas that I have come up with while creating. Some are very original. Some are combinations of others that I have seen. I am into techniques and what I can do to make them work for me. Most of the things I do started somewhere and have been tweaked to the point that they no longer resemble where they originated. I just can't seem to leave things alone. I am a member/moderator of "Sewing Tote Bags and Purses" a group that does just that with fabric and passion.
It's a pretty style.
