Tadah! I’ve got 8 new bags ready for the show this weekend, in a new design I worked up the past couple weeks. They are 7.5″ wide by 9″ tall, all of them are made from indigo dyed cotton sateen, which patterns nicely with a wee bit of sheen. 4 of them have glue resist… Continue Reading
I’ve got some organic cotton tape zippers that I’ve been meaning to try to dye for a while now, I finally dipped one into an indigo bath a couple weeks ago and was happy to see that it dyes quite well! So I set about designing a small, cross body bag that would feature a… Continue Reading

Multiples of 5 make sense because there are 5 colors in my Autumn Splendor Wallet, and ganging up each step does… Continue Reading
My Birdied Zip and Go bags (pattern by Dog Under My Desk) have been really popular, so I decided to make four more for my upcoming show. I had one left from the previous batch and so I snapped some quick pix of the whole group: The one on the upper right is my favorite!… Continue Reading
