Supernatural Magnolia Mini Messenger (Blue Calla) And More!

Lately I've been focusing on the fun and unique custom fabrics for my purses, but this one gave me a chance to go back to one of the original reasons I wanted an embroidery machine - to add on unique designs and make a purse really special!
This was done in the darkness of winter, so the 'best' pics were in the lightbox...but I was also rushing so they aren't great.

WIP Thursday - It's Just Allergies...

Every sniffle, sneeze and cough seems to be a cause for panic, but it's also Spring, which means allergy season...gotta love the change of the seasons!  Personally, I'm looking forward to the green and flowers everywhere...and with so many stuck at home, any nice days are a great excuse to go outside.  Not me tho, I'm too busy sewing through the list!
I snagged this half yard piece of amazing giant floral fabric from Blended Threads. I don't know what it will be yet, but it will be awesome!

Oh, Crit! Fresno Foldover Bag - Moon Beam Textiles

My second strike project for the current preorder at Moon Beam Textiles was the fun and funky Fresno Foldover Bag from Pink Pony Designs.  I love the 'Oh, Crit! panel, but my red dice fabric didn't exactly match on its own, so I decided to do the origami dragons as the coordinate, and use the dice for the accents and lining.
I only grabbed the largest die for these pics, didn't want to risk losing the little ones!

WIP Friday - Stay In and SEW!

Really, other than the stress of empty stores, nothing much has changed for us. Except we're all home all the time now....so that's a perfect excuse to hide in my sewing studio even more!
decided to try a stuffy with super squishy stretchy fabric...I need to stuff him still, but pretty cute!

Geo Charlotte City Tote (Swoon)

I must admit, this is probably the classiest purse I've ever made!  I even scoured the web looking for the perfect rose gold hardware!  I rarely use anything besides a silver finish, (or rainbow) so this was super special!!  I even bought rose gold rivets!
I got fancy and pulled out the 'real' backdrop!

Gamer Denver Backpack (Swoon) - Moon Beam Textiles

Once again I was fortunate and got picked to sew up some promo fabric for MoonBeam Textiles!  This round is epic gamer stuff, and while I'm not really a table top gaming(unless it's board games, love those!), I am still really liking the fabric! 
I think I need to get my own dice. For reasons.

WIP Wednesday - Ooops!

Somehow I forgot to finish the update post last week, so now I get to look like I was actually productive!
Next project!

Wonderland Carry It All Tote Handbag Testing (DCE)

One of the benefits of being (almost) caught up is that I can jump at the chance to test a new pattern!  This is from a new (to me) designer (Daywalker Customs Embroidery), the Carry It All Tote Handbag and it turned out pretty sweet!

Mad Tea Party time!

Dragon Summit Sling (Cloudsplitter)

The Summit Pack is quickly becoming one of my popular bags for orders, and no wonder!  It is stylish, roomy, and comfortable to wear!
One of my favorite villains!
