I love purses. I can't think of any better way to show that passion than to make you a tote bag. I love to make special order bags. Just ask.

I’ll Show You Mine…

Link up with Janette, she’s just a sweety!!

I make tote bags. As you can see if you look around the blog page. I have made different themed bags, all sorts of sizes, and all kinds of fabrics. So when one of my best peepster ever asked me to make a tote bag for her sister from a coffee sack, I jumped into it with both feet.

She shipped me the bag. I was stunned when I pulled out a 50lb burlap coffee bag from Hawaii!!

 

OMG!!! I screw this up I’m in big time trouble!!

My Inspiration…

love-button-15







See that scarf or shawl. It’s one of those looped types… universal, I think is what it was called. I looked it up and down and forwarIMG_4246d and backwards and I thought I could make that… so I did!
This leopard scarf/shawl was part of a gift swap I did back in February. I made the matching tote. I think I did a fine job!
Any way, I finally came across a piece of fabric that I thought would make a cool scarf. I whipped out in a matter of minutes. It took longer to heat up the iron to press it.
I mailed it to my very good friend… Becca… she has bought several of my totes to get her opinion.

I’m anxious to know what she thinks.
Don’t you think Betty makes a fine model?
