I have not really plugged my website here on my blog as I do not see my blog in that way but I am so pleased that over the past four months things have slowly started to pick up that I am going to pass on some of this news here as it links with the making and craft which is at the heart of this blog.
This lovely little bag, which I really enjoyed making, started with the brooch in the middle. I do not really wear much green but I liked the brooch too much to keep it in a box. It was a present so not second hand but it certainly wanted a new home. I spent ages trying to find what I felt was the right fabric and then the navy blue lining. All lovely thick cotton fabric and special plastic to maintain the shape of the base.
There are inside pockets, a "D" ring for your to clip on your keys and I even made a handmade zippered purse to go with it.
There is also a magnetic fastening which is pretty strong.
So this cute little bag now has a happy new home in Yorkshire to a lovely Blog friend who was in fact one of the first to leave a comment when I started my blog in 2007 so I was delighted to see her name on the order. In fact this is the second purchase from this lady.
So thank you very much and I hope you enjoy using it or giving it as a present.

I do in fact have three bags upstairs waiting to be added to the website and there are several there that would make ideal Christmas presents. I generally only make one of each fabric combination unless a custom order is asked for, maybe for a bag that has already been sold.
However, I rarely have enough of the same fabric to make more than one bag but there is no harm in asking just in case.
As I said earlier, I have been busy since August and now that they have arrived at their new homes and I have a gap in my work for the day job I shall get around to showing them here.
Guess what? I have just had a text through with another order enquiry, honestly what is going on? Take care all

Hello old friend, just stopping by to see what crafting goodness you have been up to. You have been busy. I do miss the blogging days about my crafts but some people stole the joy out of it for me and I can't seem to find it again, so I will sit back and enjoy yours. :)
I will have to check out your website. Happy day, orders are coming in!
