It's been awhile...

I know I should update my poor, neglected blog more often, but as soon as the thought enters my mind to do so, it quickly disappears again. So I have decided that there is no reason for me NOT to sit in front of my sewing machine everyday and get some work done. I'm coming up on my etsyversary (there really is such a thing, I didn't just make it up!), and I thought that after a year of having my shop open, I would have more items listed in my shop. So I've decided to do something about it, starting with these two bags:

I love this bag so much! So many pockets to it (3 on the outside, 2 on the inside), you'll be sure to never loose your cell phone in your purse ever again! I do wish that the buckle closer that was suppose to go on it would have worked out, though. I felt like it completed the purse, but I screwed up the measurements on it and couldn't use it for this bag.

This is the second bag I've finished this week, in the same style as the first one, just with less pockets! I've been waiting for the perfect bag to come along to use that huge button with, and this is the one!
In the next week and a half, I'll be working on a clutch to match a bridesmaids dress and a custom zipper handle bag. I wish I could work on more items for etsy, but that will just have to wait til next week!
