Bags Bags Bags

I made some more bags this month. First up is my Giants tote. They did so well in the playoffs that I made myself a bag in celebration. I even found some football buttons for it.



Next up are some bags that I made from faux leather and suede. For the first two bags I used Pink Sands Beach Designs Bermuda Bag pattern. For the last was their Kona Carryall pattern.

And Yet Another Bow Tucks Bag

Cinzia my loctician loved the Xbag that I gave her for her birthday so much that she gave me this orange stripey fabric and asked if I could make another one. Well the fabric she gave me was in pieces and not yardage and I didn't have enough for a Xbag. So I told her I could make her a different type of bag and that I would need to add a coordinating fabric. Reluctantly she agreed. It took me a while but I found the print to match the orange fabric and I made her a bow tucks bag. I also made her a coordinating wallet and purse. She loved it! I told her though no more challenges.

A New Bag for a New Year

Happy New Year to everyone in blogland. To start off the year I made myself a new Bow Tucks Bag. I used the knitting chickens fabric that I picked up last October when I was in the Poconos. The project was a lot easier this time though I still shake my head when reading that pattern. But I prevailed and I have myself a new knitting tote.

I like the many pockets in the bag, perfect for holding yarn, hooks and needles.

By the way I plan to do a lot more knitting and crocheting this year. I told myself I have to stay away from those games on Facebook.

Bow Tucks Bag

I finally made a Bow Tucks Bag. This pattern was very difficult to understand. I had to enlist the help of Cat, one of my quilting pals. I like the finished project. This is going to be a present for my mom. I hope she likes it.
