So... now that February is waning, and with winter pretty much in our rear view mirror, (I hope, I hope) it's time to share with you, our Eye candy Showcase for March 2026, which features two of the very first "customer-created" Expand-o-Matics!

So, let's get started!

We'll kick off this month's Eye Candy with a gorgeous Double Take created by Jeanette Jay! The Double take is a small, compact bag that holds a SURPRISING amount of stuff! Jeanette says this design is one of her favorites & love how this one turned out!

And I "spied" this colorful Go-Go Compact on Instagram, having been posted by #StoffartPatchwork. What a fun ffabric choice for this versatile little bag, & how beautifully it photographed in the sunlight!

This sultry Flaptastic was created by Christine Tantine and I LOVE the fabric she chose! Is it velvet? Is it velour? I'm not sure but the result is oh-so-pretty!

And Charlene Samanich has given us "two for the show" with an incredible Expand-o-Matic with a matching Easy Go Wallet! And not only that, Charlene actually created her Expand-o-Matic with a quilted exterior! Amazing work!
