Orchid summer tote

This is a new design for me. It is a zipper tote bag with a single shoulder strap. I free motion
machine stitch the entire bag. I used a sun yellow for an accent on the top and the same color for the liner.
I then added a machine decorative stitch on the top band, handle and accessorie case for the side. This my own pattern and is available.

This is the side view of the accessorie case that comes with it. It is the perfect size for your cell or keys. What ever you have that is small and easy to slide in. It has a velcro closure. The handle ties to the shoulder strap to the bag. The straps are long enofe to tie around your belt loop for another accent or just leave it on the bag. Which ever works best for you. The pattern icludes instructions for this as well. It is a perfect bag for the summer. Make on for yourself or for a friend. The pattern is available and the bag is available for a limited time.

"A" Shaped Bag Pattern with Applique

The pattern buisness is booming. I am so very excited. I have sold already over 200 patterns and still going. Yeah!!

This bag pattern is absolutely wonderful. The unique thing about this bag is the handles. They wrap just slightly around the front and back sides of the bag.

It is a snap closure and also available is a loop over a button closure.

The applique that I put on the bag is just beautiful. It has so much detail. The colors are a perfect match.

This is a handbag. I like the fact that it sits on your arm perfectly.

The fabric is amazing. The tulips are exquiste. They are large and full of color. So much detail went into this fabric. Very nice. This is a view of the handle from the side.
