July 2021 Eye Candy

So…

I totally LOVE seeing pictures of the bags our customers make from our patterns! There’s not too much I like better than opening up an email that includes a picture or two of a customer-made bag, and the pictures we received last month are truly extraordinary!

So let’s get started!

Nancy Rosa says she’s made more Sling Along‘s than she can count by now, and it would be impossible for me to choose my favorite. Nancy’s even figured out to substitute the split backpack straps (from our OutBreaker pattern) to her Sling Along’s in order to transform them from one-arm slingbags into true backpacks!
And Sarah Rasmussen is back with another picture purrfect Sling Along. This Star Wars-themed bag is a true showstopper! Afterall, its got EVERYTHING… exquisite fussy cutting. beautiful colorations & impeccable stitching!

Noreen Saukko used fabric & ribbon from one of my favorite Tula Pink collections (Linework) for this impressive Side Slinger!

And Ray McCoy wanted very much to get this ErgoMatic completed in time to show it off at the Mountain QuiltFest last month but it didnt work out. I would’ve loved to have seen it in person, but it ‘s well worth waiting for, right? Ray says that he’ll be keeping this particular bag for himself because he likes the idea of a bag with pinup girls on it!
And here’s yet another Sling Along by the incomparable Nancy Rosa, again featuring backpack straps from our OutBreaker design. Since I really like the look of these straps I may have to fix up a little tutorial so that all of you can make this substitution if you like!

And wouldn’t this “Jungle Book- themed” ErgoMatic be a FUN bag to carry on a walk thru “the park”? Julie Maurer really did a great job on her bag which I’m sure is turning heads wherever Julie carries it!

When Dale Whyte posted this picture of her new Gemini FlightBag she said that “she’s been at it again!” and why not when she’s got this level of creative talent, right? I love these “southwest” fabrics and Dales sure combined them beautifully!

And I would have loved to have seen Joy Carr‘s granddaughter when she received this whimsical GateWay bag. Joy said she LOVED it and who wouldn’t, right?

And who else is brave enough to use leather in the course of sewing up our bag patterns? None other than Don Distler of course and he makes it look EASY!

This is one impressive Sling Along for sure and Don even does all of his own embroidery as well!

And finally, here’s Cora Bray‘s very first Gemini FlightBag who says she going to take this beauty on a vacation with her very soon! It looks like the perfect travel bag to me!

And now, it’s YOUR turn!

    These all look fantastic!! I, for one, would love a split backpack strap option! I have the sling along and think that is a great addition to the pattern!!
