Elk Rapids show 5-28-2011

Upcoming show will be at  Elk Rapids- downtown on the main street.  Elk Rapids is a very beautiful town on Lake Michigan. Lots of great small shops and terrific artists. Hopefully we will have some great weather instead of all this rain. Keep your fingers crossed. Here are some simple totes to use when you go to the beach, grocery store, or the art show. Sturdy corded handle with large grommets. Two large outside and inside pockets.

Quilts, quilts, quilts

 I still love to make quilts.Due to the rise in cheap mass-market quilts (at discount stores), it is hard to get a good price for a hand-made, unique quilt.So in recent years I have turned to making a few abstract,geometric quilts when i find a great focus fabric. Usually i play around with design in January/february when i don't have alot on my plate. Here are a few I will be selling this summer. They range in size from 42" square to 72" x 68".



messenger bags for summer

 Messenger bags continue to be very popular . When i saw these fabrics i knew i wanted to design a basic messenger bag. The small is 16" x 12" x 4" and will hold a 14" x 10" laptop. The large is 17" x 14" x 5" and will hold a 15" or larger laptop. They are made of 100% premium cotton and cotton poplin. They have an adjustable strap on both the large and small.
