Bags

The bags I make are labor intensive, and each one is an individual work of art. All my bags are made from hand dyed canvas, so they are very durable. I designed them to have all the features I wanted in a bag:

Features

1. They’re sturdy - Each piece is fused to batting and interfacing, to give it structure. The base is given shape by 2 pieces of peltex (the material baseball cap brims are made from). Crucial seams are double stitched, and top-stitching adds strength and beauty.
2. They’re pretty - The front flap begins as a unique art quilt, quilted with my “sketchy” quilting style. Of course, I think the colors I choose are nice – that’s why I dye them
3. They’re functional – Each bag was originally designed by me to meet a specific need, because a gal can’t have too many bags now, can she? Thus, each bag has unique features like pockets, key leashes and adjustable straps, each with a particular function…with my bags I NEVER lose my cell phone or my keys (I still occasionally lose the whole bag though!)

I have a few bags in stock right now, click here for those:

I’ve found I’m happiest making them on commission, so the colors and the artistic motif match the intended recipient to a tee! I make 3 basic types of bags, click on the titles for more information, click on the photo to enlarge

Time Frame:

• This varies with what’s piled up on my workspace at home, can be as short as 3 days, but may be as long as a month. We’ll make it work for both of us!
• Email me with questions! Designing your custom bag is a process, fun…but a process!
