PPC24: Deco Delight

By Kat | February 27, 2021 |

So… today we’re revealing the last sample we’ve created in support of our new pattern design, the Gemini FlightBag.

So… in our last post I showed you a bag that I totally had FUN making, and every once in a while it’s nice to cut loose and make something that’s just for fun, right? But now we only have one more sample to make after this one and then it’s time to choose one…

So…. 2021 is well underway, the vaccines are here and hopefully someday soon our lives will go back to some semblance of normal, but in the meantime, what better way to flush the memory of 2020 from our minds than to feast our eyes on some wonderful customer-created bags!
