(The date shown above is the date the contest began)
Hi There!
The giveaway is over, but your comments for the giveaway remain as a reminder of the wonderful supportive folks out there in BLOGWORLD.
I am happy to report that I will, indeed, be creating a pattern for this bag design, (see below) which will be available sometime this fall. I will post about it as soon as it is ready.
I noticed that there were some entries "after the fact", I wanted you to know that you were still appreciated! Thank you for your kind comments! I will be hosting another giveaway shortly, so come back to see!leather and beads...
Side button cinching...
I like that this bag can stand up on its own. I like that it's big and roomy, colorful, and young. I like that it has a firm, not saggy bottom. (Unlike mine!) It hearkens back to the 70's when I was growing up as a bit of a hippie. It boasts lots of inside pockets, large 8" diam. bamboo handles, grommets, leather tie-ons and hand painted wooden beads.
This bag will be known as the Retro "Groovy" Bag , and will be for sale in time for fall market in October, if all goes well!
Working... working... working....

Your bags are beautiful and I can't wait till you put them on the market so I can get one! I am 56 and used to love to snuggle under my grandmother's pieced quilts made of bright fabrics. When I turned 21, she gave me a bag similar to this with wooden handles to carry my crocheting. I am so glad to find someone who does today what she did years ago. I will give you my email address and I hope you will let me know when they go on the market. I'd love to buy several for Christmas gifts. kmmeeker@comcast.net
