A Textural Dream
These new colorful and reversible totes are just the thing to give you Spring Fever without even packing away the winter gear. These handmade market bags are a super colorful collection of eclectic upholstery fabrics that scream…”please don’t leave me at home!” Because I sometimes struggle making things that are non-reversible these tote bags are beautiful on both sides giving you not just one awesome bag, but two!
While I LOVE making your awesome handmade hats this new line of spring bags for 2021 has been a welcome change not only visually but also texturally.

Scrappy Sustainability
As you know I love to hear from my people about new ideas and ways to do things so in the midst of my social media viral video I was prompted to think about all the scraps that lay on my kitchen floor after two days of cutting my bag fabric patterns. Giving some of these fabric scraps a home, other than my trash, got me excited to use them in some of the designs of the new handmade totes. Keeping these market totes creative, unique, fresh and timeless stays true with the sustainability of handmade and the theme of bound to be creative!
new collection of handmade bags are HERE!


Tote-ally Handmade
Who doesn’t need a quick and easy tote to lug items from the car to the house? These handmade totes are made with the natural stiffness of upholstery fabric, giving them weight and a beefy, but beautiful, attitude. While dreamy to sew they are even dreamier to hold your local fresh market goods, library books and perhaps even fill your game day goods for pickleball!

I would love to have you stop by and see what’s new for spring or just peek your head in to say hello!

Watch my Behind the Seams viral video and ask yourself, huh?….because I thought the same thing and not sure exactly why it went viral – but it’s sorta cool. I’m a mini celebrity in my home.
Until next time,
