the Eye Candy Showcase for February’24

So… it’s that time again!

It’s time to let the skills of our customers shine in the February ’24 Eye Candy Showcase! I SO love seeing the unique & creative bags our customers create using our patterns & this month’s lineup is really inspiring!

So what are we waiting for? Let’s get started!

Kathy Prickett said she was totally intimidated when she first received her Flaptastic pattern, but since she’s recently retired, she finally decided to “bite the bullet” and give it a try! And I’m SO glad she did! Here it is completed and destined to be a Christmas gift for her sister!

And even though they’re not particularly easy to see in these photos, Don Distler embellished this Easy Go Wallet with Swarovski crystals for a totally sophisticated finish!

And Jeanette Jay says that her customer loved our Easy Go Wallet design but specifically requested that Jay make it 2″ wider, and didn’t Jay do a great job doing so?!? The finished touch was the decorator fabric she used for the exterior… it’ll last forever now!

Lasey Jones cut out all of the pieces for this Bangle Buddie almost a year ago, but just recently completed her project! It looks whimsical & fun and Lasey says its most likely destined for her teenager who loves Ramen & Pikachu.

And Don Distler‘s back with another fun Easy Go Wallet, only this time he utilized an Australian print to pair with Swarovski crystals for an especially elegant finish!

This is the 2nd Gemini FlightBag that Jill Weiland has created because she says she’s found that this design meets “every single criteria that she needs in a bag… and that’s a rare thing!”

Karla Grady claims that the Quattro pattern is her all-time favorite!
She says its a joy to make & to use PLUS…
she loves the front pouch area as well as the side pockets!

And how about this fun Sling Along that was created by Sharon Hilt?
Sharon commented that “this was a really FUN pattern to use with this feature print”.
But I also think that the contrasting fabric is perfect as well.

And Jeanette Jay got a custom request from a friend who is a “pug-lover” just like her, so she chose an exterior fabric for this Double Take that features pug dogs (by PetFriendlyDesigns @Spoon Flower). And by the way… check out the totally adorable pug dog zipper pull.

And finally, Carol Lawson says that our Quattro design has always been one of her favorites!
I love the exterior fabric she’s chosen and I’m sure she’s turning heads everywhere she goes!

And now, it’s YOUR turn!
