Well I did these this afternoon, Got the ready made cheap canvas bags in a pack at Hobby Lobby ( got them even cheaper by going to the website and printing off the 40% off coupon )and then used what I had on hand to line them and put pockets on them and embroidery a design on them. They sell well in my shop and are also great for inexpensive christmas gifts!

I am working on one for myself out of denim. I want to be able to put my sisterhood patch on it when I'm finished embroiderying it. I Love the cherry fabric so lined it in it. That fabric is actually the center cut out of a border fabric that I used to make curtains out of :) I wallpapered the kitchen in cherrys but you can hardly see the paper with all my stuff...lol....You just keep stacking things higher in a tiny cabin! I'll see if I can attach a photo, give ya'll a chuckle...

Thanks! You'd never guess red is my favorite color :) The horse purse says ( I'm so busy..I don't know if I found a horse or lost my rope..) They are 8 inch purses and I think I put 8.50 on them. I also did a couple of pillowcases that I did'nt get a picture of but one has a pig on it and says ( HOGS THE BLANKETS ) and the other has a dog on it and says ( SNORES LIKE A BIG DOG ) I took them down today to the booth.

Sure ya'll can all come for coffee :) We will sit by the wood burning stove in the rockers :) Yes Grace, I think I still have that one. I am selling them for 8.50. Probably fit in a priority envelope which I think is 4.95 to mail??? My address is 247 Cumberland Lane, Ardmore, Oklahoma 73401. I have the grandkids 2morrow but will have my mom swing by and grab it :) I need your address!

Sure you can join Terri :) I have a sister named Terri and spelled the same way :) Grace I will get it mailed asap, when I don't have kids hanging off of me. lol...check out my blog I have pictures of them both plus more pics of the fabric booth. I need to find a cheap way to purchase fat quarters of fabric. I really like the retro ones. 100% cotton.

hey Nancy, your new denim bag that you made for yourself is a cutie!
I can just see a 6 dozen or so of them in the closet hanging on pegs & each tote holding "undermentionable", socks, scarves, gloves and hankies. How Cute!
I sent you a check in todays mail & it should arrive to you in about 3-4 days.
Hugz & Thanx again...Merry Christmas

Well I am tickled it made it and you also liked the little book :) Don't you just love aprons! Hey I want to see a picture of your trailer! I would LOVE to have one!!!
I need to wade thru the snow tomorrow and go in the jeep to the shop and gussy up the large booth, take down all the christmas and redo it all. I usually try to not do that on weekends but the grandkids are out of school for the holidays and I REALLY don't want to take a 3 and 5 year old with me. lol....

Well now I'm hooked and want a trailer! Those are ADORABLE! Growing up we always had a winabago. They were big tho, I want a small one just for 2 people. I'm jealous of ya'll getting together camping! What fun! Wish I lived closer!!!
