New Spoonflower Swatches Are Here!

My new swatches arrived this morning.  Something like 37 swatches.  I was thrilled and took the opportunity to photograph outside in the natural lighting.  I did have issues with my vine coordinates though.  The repeat didn't set up like I was hoping, so I will have to work on that before photographing and posting. They are all available at spoonflower and I will be gradually listing them on etsy as well.  I would love to hear your feedback on my designs, just shoot me an email. Enjoy!

"Curvy Purse" by "The Crochet Diva"

Yesterday I wanted to work on something for myself.  I have been dying to make a purse out of my sewing toile fabric so that is what I did.  I got a great deal for valentines day from "The Crochet Diva" on Etsy and used her pattern for the Curvy Purse.  Small and simple.  I love the result and the pattern was very easy to follow and create. This is one I can take minimal items with me, like when I go to Las Vegas next month.  The straps are removable via some darling toggle clasps if I want to just use it as a clutch. Of course its my fabric so that makes it perfect;-)  I am also trying to get some quilting done and finish up some items for the stash game.  The hustle and bustle around here never seems to end.  Onto the photos!!! And yes some sunshine finally!
Here is the link to my fabric on Spoonflower!
