Debra Callaghan's Scrap Bag Cuties

Drapery Remnants Recycled into Vintage Handbags --> We like the sound of that!

Debra Callaghan has been making Scrap Bag Cuties!! "Recently I’ve acquired a great amount of drapery remnants and have been making bags from these remnants," explains Debra. She is starting a website for custom bags called Pardon My Bag. Go check it out! It isn't quite done, but it already looks great! Debra also adorns her bag with drapery tassels, cording and ornaments! These are very fun! Thank you so much for sharing these with us Debra! Good luck in your endeavor!

Kathy Booth's Garden Purse

Remember the post about our bag being featured in Quilt Magazine? Click HERE to view it. Well, Kathy Booth has made one of those Garden Purses up!

It turned out adorable! Kathy used Calista fabric from Blank Quilting. It could not have turned out better! Super cute! Thanks for sharing this with us! We love seeing how they turn out with other fabrics and colors!  "I can’t wait to show my friends!" -Kathy

Laure Schaerr's Flip Flap Bags

This is Laure with her two girls and their Flip Flap Bags! The girls wanted something to carry their ballet slippers and other goodies to dance class! They picked out their fabrics and now they all have pretty pink purses!

We think they turned out great! Dance away girls! Thanks for sharing the photos with us! Your girls (and you!) are beautiful!

"They turned out well. The girls are happy with them so I’m happy!" - Laure Schaerr

Christine's Sweaters

Before I even begin to dig into how amazing and generous Christine is, I have to say that these are the best first applique projects I have seen! Before these sweaters she hadn't even attempted it! We are impressed!

Christine is a happy Grandma of seven and was looking for a fun and unique project to do when she found our website. The first project she made was "Pitty the Kitty." One of her dear friends fell in love with it and Christine gave it to her! The next sweater she made was the "Pound Hounds." She ended up giving this one away to another close friend! She wanted to make "I Love My Gray Hares" for her daughter-in-law and made some creative changes! She resized the heads to make a "Daddy" in the middle, two boys with bow ties and two twin girls with pacifiers. The hares represent Christine's son and his kids. Too cute!

"I had never appliqued anything before. I had a lot of fun making the sweatshirts and experimenting with colors." -Christine


She is quite the busy bee! Christine has also made the sweatshirt from "The Bundles" for her eldest granddaughter and is planning to make sweatshirts for all the grand-kids for the next Christmas! She is also making the "Caterwauling" pattern for her niece! I hope she makes something for herself too! What a generous and talented woman! Thanks so much for sharing the photos Christine! We would love to see more of your future projects!
