I found a new ballot bag to upcycle - it's a little different from the ones I've used before but still perfect for this election year!! A new tote bag is coming soon!

This eco-friendly tote bag is a delightful combination of rustic charm and modern functionality. The main body is constructed from a vintage seed sack, its bold lettering and graphics offering a unique glimpse into the past. Repurposed denim panels add a touch of sturdiness and contemporary style, creating a beautiful contrast against the natural fibers of the seed sack. This spacious tote is perfect for carrying groceries, library books, or anything else your day throws your way, all while showcasing your love for sustainable fashion.

New for my shows this year - quilted coasters/mug rugs in lots of wonderful colors!

This unique shoulder bag is a charming blend of old and new. The main body is crafted from a vintage embroidered tablecloth, its delicate butterfly design adding a touch of sweetness.
