handmade bags
A sampling of handmade bags I’ve been making. I like to use a basic design, making it easier to assembly line batch sew.
I use basic purse hardware, metal rings on the handles so the handles are easily replaceable if they wear out before you’re done using the purse
I like to use upholstery fabric in the body of my handmade bags. The heavier weight fabrics hold up well to wear and hold the bag shape well.
Mixing fabrics and pushing the edge on texture and pattern combinations are what make the whole process so much fun. I never make the same bag twice, making every handmade bag I sew 100% unique.
Take a look at a batch of my small messenger bags or my larger messenger bags or mixed bag designs.
Thanks for looking!

Also have a new pink/orange, wool felt/satin scarf. Conducted the music today in it, C said it looked ceremonial. Looking forward to your show with Steve O: —> as in 🙂
