Classic Canvas Purse

I have been dreaming of making these beauties for a few years now.  My first attempt made me realize I need a binding tool.  However, now that I have a custom made tool, I have realized it is easier just to bind it by hand.... so much for that!  These are definitely not the easiest bags for me to make... but I love them.

Spring is here! Finally!

I have been working on a couple of new designs, which will be available this spring at the Vineyard Church Spring Sale here in Winnipeg, May 31.  This lightweight waxed canvas bag and a lightweight market tote ( available in brown and grey) will be part of my collection, as well as a variety of all my other canvas designs.  

Busy days

It's been a while, but I hope to slowly get sewing again.  We are in the midst of home renovations and my day job are consuming most of my time these days.  I am still trying to get some stock together for a possible Spring sale in May.   I just finished this bike bag, in a new colour combination, and off to Latvia it goes.

New Waxed Canvas Purse

Here it is my newest design, just in time for Christmas.  My large waxed canvas tote/carry all was so popular at the festival this summer, I decided I needed to have a smaller version of it.  This beautiful little purse will sell for $120.

Charcoal Saddle Bag

Snootsie currently has several bike bags in stock.  Check out

WINNIPEG CHRISTMAS SALE 2013

http://www.vineyardcraftsale.com/

In with the new out with the old.  I will have several bags at a discounted prices.  If you haven't got a Snootsie Bag yet, you will want to come to this sale.  I will have a wide variety of my designs available, including some new styles.  There will be 59 other vendors, including some of my personal favorite Winnipeg crafters.

Challenges!!

I was so excited about my new canvas bags and backpacks I was planning on putting together in this last month of prep for the festival.  Things started to get complicated when I started to run out of the trim leather...  Can't seem to find it in town anymore...  So I am on the hunt and these beautiful bags are going to have to wait.  Hopefully I can still get them together before summers end.
