One of things I love best about designing patterns is to see the amazing things out customers create using our patterns! As a matter of fact, there’s not much I like better than opening up an email that includes a picture or two of a customer-made bag! And here’s the deal, this month’s selection of bags are ESPECIALLY well made and I think you’re really going to enjoy them!
So…let me show you!
Now here’s a fun Sling Along that was created by Elaine Comer. It reminds me of the Maine shoreline which we used to visit every summer when I was a kid. I hope Elaine is going to be somewhere fun while carrying this bag… maybe even Maine?
And I met Susanne Richter at the recent AQS Paducah show where she purchased this Sling Along pattern and it didnt take her long to create her sleek & classic take on this design!
And here’s a delightful Bella BiFold created by Charlene Samanich! It seems to be the perfect bag to carry thru the hot summer months! Great job Charlene!
So when Jenn Kirby saw this fabric (by Tula Pink), she knew exactly what she it was calling out for and she was right! It looks splendid on our Sling Along design! She also created her own makeup bag to go with it!
This scaled-down version of our Elsie K Baglet was created by Nancy Rosa who said that this smaller version was MUCH more labor-intensive than the full-sized version she’s made before. She said she’s not pleased with the result and won’t be experimenting this way again, but it’s still a very pretty bag, right?Barb Robertson says she’s very happy with how her 1st Sling Along turned-out and I can certainly see why! And how interesting is this exterior fabric? Its hard to tell if its pre-embroidered or not! Its beautiful either way! And Elaine Comer‘s back but this time she’s showing off a very cheerful Walkabout Wallet! She has her wallet set up with a hand strap but you can also carry this design as a shoulder or crossbody bag!Reba Bristol said she’s so happy that she finally finished her Sling Along and isn’t this a dramatic combination of fabrics?And here you can see that Nancy Rosa has gone back to a standard-sized Elsie K Baglet and she mentioned that she is SO much more pleased with the results and as for me, this fabric combination is amazing (as well as that delectible purple zipper).And finally, this is the 2nd of two Bangle Buddies that @Tumbleweed made for each of her granddaughters and she reports that they LOVED them! (But that’s no surprise, right?) Just click HERE to see the other one!
