I haven't posted anything in a while. I'm trying to get an idea for how I'm doing this (this blog) and it just bores me to tears. This is what I've come up with to try, every 2 or 3 days I will make a brief post (if I have a good topic it will be longer) and pics of the current project. Now I have to say this, I am not a photographer and I am not a writer. So, if my pictures are a little blurry or I make a lot of grammatical errors I'm sorry, just look at my work. I know how to sew, I am creative, I love to create, and I like to sell my pieces to people who will love them for years to come (I hope at least). So this is what I've been creating lately. I have taken another one of my purses that is all ready made and I am tranforming it into something better.
This is my Hawaiian floral bag / purse / tote (I made this bag last year and I have had it up for sale at my Artfire studio ) as it was:
I am adding ruffles to it.
Those ar the strips that will be turned into nice flirty ruffles.
and here I am working on hand sewing the second row of ruffles
so, I will finish sewing this row on and then make one more ruffle and hand sew it on. Then I will handsew each ruffle one more time, this will help so it doesn't pull off. I always try my best to make sure my purses and sewn items are sewn securely so that they don't fall apart. My purses are made to last. Back to work.
