New Fabrics... Solo Shows... New Shops... and More

Yikes, been a while so lots to share!

Currently you can see the new bags using my first line of fabrics locally at SPACE Gallery, part of the Cultural Affairs Department here in Savannah.












Artifacts Gallery in Athens, Ohio is now carrying a full line of retrofied handbags. About 15 different fabric options for you.




Locally you can also find bags at Twinkle in Savannah's City Market.

Very cute shop with a mix of local artist's works.

Sweetest Baby Photo Ever!

A very nice customer emailed me the sweetest photo ever:



I had a feeling no one could resist this shot. She blogged a review about the bag set as well: http://www.thedailydean.com/ Maybe I need to rethink the photos in the listing!




Over the past three years people have emailed me many photos of their bags loaded with goodies, on trips, heading to class... I think a baby in a bag is the sweetest one yet!

New Retrofied Fabrics

Been working diligently on an upcoming show and finally completed the fabrics. Woohoo! Here is a sneak peak of some close ups of the art.

Bags will show up over at retrofied late May/ early June.

The artwork is all pen and inks turned into fabrics. Hope you enjoy!

Backpacks with a Purpose

Recently a really sweet customer approached me about making a backpack for her - a cute one with a purpose - to hold a feeding tube. Something I lacked any knowledge of.

With some (ok - alot!) of help and feedcack from Emily this back pack is the perfect place for a feeding pump. With the addition of a claw hook on the inside flap, a zippered pocket inside for meds, and an exiting hole on the back right side of the bag this little back pack is functional and cute!
