Mary Z Bright and full of fun!

My mary Z collection is one of my best sellers. This one is just perfect for the summer. A grab and go tote bag. Fun bold colors that scream for attention. The liner is sun yellow, the same color as the fun tie strap hanging on the handle. The handle is a double ring with a red pink shade. Perfect coordinating color. The sides are pulled up in an envelope style with a white button for accent. The fabric on this bag is medium weight, very comfortable fit. It lays flat but when needed it expand to a full size bag to hold all your fabulous things. Throw in go, great for the summer heat. You can throw it over your shoulder or hold it in your hand. Either way you are going to look just fabulous with this all around fantastic bag!

Mary Z tote fun and flirty


This is my Mary Z tote bag. Fabulous style bag for an all year around look. This bag is a heavy weight tapestry floral print in a bouquet of spring and summer flowers. It is a large tote with no closure. It is meant for throw and go. When you are out and about, and you need to put your fun finds in something, this is the best place for them. The handle is a marble burgandy ring. There are two of them. The bag is full, but it does compress down for a more flat appearance. On each side, is pulled up for an envelope look. Very cute with accented pearl shell buttons on each side. The liner on the inside is a beautiful shade of seafoam green. Very nice accent. You can throw it over your arm or hold it in your hands. What ever is most comfortable for you. I have many of these comming up in different colors and patterns. Keep your eyes open.

Pretty pink with blue florals, Oriental


This is such a pretty bag. The flowers are just so delicate in the most beautiful colors with gold detailing threw out the entire fabric. The detail is exquisite. I free form machine quilted the bag in a cobalt blue embroidery thread. The entire bag is done this way. The triangle shape flap is quite unique, it is a coordinating blue with the waves detailed in gold. This is a snap closure. This is a double shoulder strap with a very comfortable length. The inside liner is the same as the flap with pockets that are divided to keep all your important things together. The bottom of the bag is hard for stability. Meaning the bag will not be saggy when you add your things to the bag. The bottom measures in at 12/ 3 1/2, nice size bag.
Great bag for everyday. Perfect for the spring and summer.

This is a beautiful Victorian rose bag. I free form machine quilted the bag entirely. I trimmed the outside of the bag in a coordinating green. Along the top and the double shoulder strap I did a decorative machine stitch. The front has a snap closure with a flap. The inside of the bag is lined in the green fabric and is also free form machine quilting. There are two pockets on the inside that are divided. This bag comes with a coordinating purse organizer. The bottom of the bag is hard so when you put your items inside it will not be saggy.
This is a real nice bag for someone who loves quilted bags.

I like making bags that are different then any other. This one is definitely in that category. It is a weaved straw bag. It has a zipper closure. The handle is strickly for your hand. I attached silk pointsettas to the bag. The flowers have gold glitter to them. It sets the flower with a bit of class.
This is a real fun bag to carry. I have one!
