The Jeannine 2 Zipper Wristlet



If you like wristlets, pouches or whatever you want to call them, then I think you will love the Jeannine 2 Zip Wristlet.
Measuring about 7.75" across X 5" high, the Jeannine Wristlet offers double storage space because of its 2 zippered sections.  Because the strap is detachable, the wristlet can be carried as a wristlet or just tossed into a larger bag to!hold cosmetics, charhing cords, etc.
The wristlet is shown in the elegant Belle of the South prequilted fabric.
Price: $20.

A New Lisa Foldable iPad Cover


This past weekend I made a new Lisa Foldable iPad Cover & used the Hanna prequilted fabric I used to make the new D'Ann 2 Zip Hipster. Am not much into being 'matchy' but, because I just love the new Hannah prequilted fabric, I decided to use the Hannah for my iPad cover.

The photos show the iPad cover both closed & open at the typing angle. As described in earlier posts about the Lisa iPad cover, the cover has 2 viewing angles. One angle is for typing & the other is for reading or web browsing. It is amazing what a difference a few degrees can make!

The cover can be ordered in any of the fabrics shown in my etsy store: https://www.etsy.com/shop/Bassetmommy

Price: $25 + S&H when applicable

D'Ann Hipster





This afternoon I finished making my newest bag, the DAnn 2 Zip Hipster Bag. I absolutely love this new style! To make the DAnn Hipster I used the Hannah prequilted fabric, one of my newest fabrics which is available in my etsy store, https://www.etsy.com/shop/Bassetmommy.
The DAnn Hipster has a recessed top zipper closure, 1 exterior zipped pocket (think passport!) backed by a slip-in pocket, 2 interior slip-in pockets & an adjustable shoulder strap which makes it ideal for wearing the bag crossbody. The bag measures about 11" tall, 9" across & 1.5" deep. I hope to make a few more DAnn bags while I am out on break. For more info just send me an email.
Price: &40.00 + S&H when applicable

The Maeve Cinch Tote Bag


This afternoon I finished a great new tote bag that I am calling The Maeve Cinch Tote.

I used the beautiful Lily le Reve prequilted fabric for the exterior, a light green for the lining & a Lily le Reve coordinate for the 8, yes 8!!, inside slip-in pockets.

The bag exterior has a top zippered closure & an outside front zippered pocket.

The bag is called a cinch bag because the top & bottom sides can be cinched together to reduce wiggle room when the bag is not totally full.

The bag measures 16.5" across, 11.5" high & 4" inches deep. Did I say how much I absolutely love this new bag???

Price: $40.00

The Leslie Backpack


I recently completed an order for a Leslie backpack.

My customer ordered the backpack for her niece who is starting college in the fall.
The backpack style, especially because of its comfortably wide adjustable straps, is a popular one among college students as the bag is also quite large and holds loads of 'stuff'.

My customer chose the elegant & practical black Orleans prequilted fabric & its coordinates for her niece's bag.

The outside front of the bag has a zippered pouch pocket which can be used any numbers of good-sized items.

The inside is accessed via a top zipper which extends from one center side to the other.
Inside there are slip-in pockets on both sides as well as a side pocket which could hold a water bottle.

There is also a carrying handle at the center top of the zipper.

Price as shown is $70.00.

During the Columbus Day weekend I made 2 of the Smart Pocket cell phone cases from the pattern I recently bought in sewspoiled's etsy shop. I absolutely love these ever so versatile cases!!

The cleverly designed Smart Pocket features a zippered section that holds a cell phone and keys, a detachable wrist strap, a front flap pocket that easily holds a license & cash, a rear belt loop thru which the detachable armstrap slips when joggers & walkers want to wear the Smart Pocket on their arm. The armstrap fastens with velcro.

The Smart Pockets will be first available at the Carpenter Museum's holiday sale at the Francis Farm in Rehoboth, Ma I will be in November 2-3, 2012.
