Cat napping!
I designed the appliquéd picture on the front of this bag after playing around with circles and hearts. The cat is made from felt circles to give added texture. Strips of little patchwork squares surround the cat in coordinating cottons. After simply quilting, I added several buttons for decoration and it also added secure strength for the handles. Inside there is a multi pocket, one with a zip for extra security. I love my cosy cat counting mice!

Bright and Breezy Boats
I designed and made this handy shopping bag using lots of bright cotton to contrast vividly, giving it, I think, a very fresh spring or summery feel. Inside it has a multi pocket, one of which has a zip. With small hand applique boat design in coordinating fabric and a couple of complementary buttons not only add decoration but also are stitched through to give extra security to the handles. Designed to brighten up any shopping trip or day at the beach!
