I needed to make time to tackle this bag I've been dying to make. It is from Amy Butler's Style Stitches book.

This book is STUFFED FULL of great patterns to make 26 wonderful bags.

The beauty of a bag is it is so easy to make it your own by adding a ruffle or flower and the bag COPS A NEW FEEL with every change in fabric.

{Yes . . . that's right - COPS A FEEL}

A few weeks ago I was SPOILED with a SWEET PACKAGE filled to the brim with fabric, sent from my Mom (I love her!). In it was some of Amy Butler's new line of fabric. We are carrying some of the new line, Soul Blossoms.

(local pick-up is also available for you Wasatch Front'ers)

This line is wild, bright and so alive. It is sure to bring life back instantly, especially during this cold, gray winter ~ being able to work with it is a joy!

You can purchase her fabric from us at our ETSY store: http://www.etsy.com/shop/OpenMarket

I chose to go with Fuchsia Tree. You can get it here.

This bag is my new FAV. I can't wait to carry it around. It screams SPRING!

Isn't she perty?!

I love the interior. There are 2 divider pockets and plenty of room for all my stuff.

I'M SMITTEN

and pleased to announce that I have fully recovered from my unsuccessful quilt project.

#6 I'M GRATEFUL FOR PROJECTS THAT TURN OUT RIGHT!
