Faboulous! I got your lovelies last night when I got home (at 11:30 p.m BAH!) How did you know I lose chapsticks so fast????

I'm so glad you like the fabrics and I'm counting on seeing some gorgeous bags!

What is your favorite out of the lot?

Hands down the camels... I just love everything about it, the color how it feels... just everything. Now I just need o find the perfect shad of brown for the bottom part & straps in ultrasuade and some hardware. I wish I could get another 10 yrds of it.
Off to the fabric store!

I will post pictures as soon as I finish it.

Thanks!

Very cool! I like that one, too, and also the rust colored floral (it's a larger piece)...would make a great satchel or hobo bag...I'll send you a photo of one of my favorites that a friend made for me with leather and upholstery fabric. I get compliments on it wherever I go...my crazy mom always says, "when you die, I get that bag!!!"

Oh... I love that one too, But I need to also find a cooridinating bottom for it and brass hardware...then there is that small peice that looks like an acient tapestry. They are all so lush, and I love the rich warm colors. I will be either going to chicago or NYC looking for the speciality hardware. But the Camel! I am going to design a bucket bag with a long strap for that.

Yes I would love to see pictures of your bag...

That small piece you're talking about--it's really lovely....I've always imagined that as sort of a 20's beaded bag...like a small pouch with jet beaded trim, and a silver snap enclosure. Something VERY chic, very feminine, that could double with jeans and a cool jacket or a little black evening dress.
