Fill it up for Game Day!

These tote bags are super cute and work so good for taking your snacks to game day, or just to show your support for your favorite team.  There are so many sports teams here in the Bay Area and I have a sewing machine that can sew a matching tote for any of them!!!  I finished the tote for my mom's friend, I hope she likes it as much as she likes the 49ers!  


Good for everyday use!
Both sides
Go NINERS!

matching coin purse and pencil case...



I had some extra material, so I made a coin purse and a pencil case.  I have made a few of these coin purses before, except w/ a snap instead of velcro.  I think velcro actually works better, the snap makes for a difficult opening.  The pencil case was a little challenging.  I had to take the stitching out a few times and start over again, and again, it still didn't turn out the way I wanted.  I had taken the stitching out too many times to retry a 3rd time, but I think I figured it out for the next one I decide to make.  I hope you guys like them, LeAnna and Angie!  Love you guys.

Tote Bags

I mailed my pretty cousin her new tote, she likes it so much, she told me shes using it as a purse!  Looks nice on you, LeAnna!






I made two bags recently for my cousins.  Older cousin loves the Raiders and the little cousin loves HELLO KITTY!  The bags are reversible and very sturdy.  I didn't come across any challenges, except for the bobbin in the sewing machine getting stuck-- I have figured it out.  Not too bad for my first sewing project with my moms old Singer!
