Spring Break is coming to an end...


Japanese Knot Bag with iPad padded pocket


Time flies when you are busy sewing! Today was my last full day of sewing on spring break. Tomorrow I have my second crocheting class and before that I am looking forward to having a nice breakfast with Jay, so no sewing. Then it looks like Sunday is going to be my first outing on my bike, I'm sorry lungs! (Somewhere in there I also need to get a little homework done.) Anyways I have had a very productive break. Here are a few more projects I accomplished. All of them are custom orders.

Awe Knots!

Update: Finished another bag. This bag is listed on my Etsy store.

Dewberry Japanese Knot Bag, reversible

Two down, two more to go. I had to take a break from sewing today to go see Hunger Games with my honey. Well worth it! I loved the trilogy and loved the first movie just as much. Tomorrow I will finish the other two knot bags. For now, enjoy these:

Dragonfly Knot

Knots for You!



I am working on Japanese knot bags right now. These are three I have made over the past few days. They are reversible, you can see the two prints in the pictures.

An Echino Wish



I bought this fabric with intentions of making a knot bag. But it told me that it really wanted to be a messenger bag. I am glad I listened! I am so happy with how it turned out. This is a tough one to let go but a good friend is adding it to her collection of Off The Hook bags. Thank you Martha!

Love Me Knot


Japanese Knot Bag made with Amy Butler fabric "Love". I am in love with the knot bags. What a great concept. I will be making many more and listing them in my Etsy store. This bag was bought by my cousin.

Linen Screen Print Handbags





I took full advantage of not having homework or class today and made two linen handbags. Both fabrics are hand screen prints that I found at a local shop. I thought they would both make elegant handbags, and I would have to say now that they have taken shape, I think they are very elegant. Both of these bags will be listed on Etsy.

Computer Bag

Thanks to LoraLee and her Etsy shop, Sewing Supplies I was able to finish this bag in a timely matter. I am really excited with how it turned out. My machine was acting a little off so I was worried about the final product but as you can see it turned out nicely. As always, I can only hope that the customer is happy too!
