25.3.11

okay so the beautiful sunshine yesterday made me less glum about the snow sneeking it's way back in for one little last blast (hopefully) - so to put spring back in my step - I designed a new bag. I know that this little bag will be my new favourite. I contemplated about putting an adjustable strap with the same fabric - similar to the first field bag I made. but when I put on the shorter strap it sat nicely on my shoulder tucked under my arm. the only thing I'm thinking about changing is the snap colour - to a pewter colour (so that it fits with the leather colour) - I have it posted on the etsy shop and they will also be available next week at the ooak show. I will have a new booth display and more new products - please come and visit if your in the hood. It starts on the 30th which is fast approaching, but my long nights are paying off. I am in good form - I think it's a first - or maybe with getting older I am doing less freaking and more chilling. speaking of chilling - I'm looking forward to seeing nikole tomorrow night - it's been so long since I've seen her - so much to catch up on.
enjoy your weekend friends, I hope there's plenty of sunshine. xxa

    i'm completely in love with this bag - i saw it earlier on etsy. if i wasn't trying to save some cash it would already be bought. then again, i might have to get anyway...

    As you know, I also have the original field bag (thanks to the generous and lovely Margie) and love it! This one is beautiful too. I think a pewter snap is a great idea.

    Have a lovely weekend! Enjoy your time with Nikole. She seems like such a lovely person.

    Such a lovely bag, and I do like the leather elements. Hope Spring is here to stay! We're enjoying the relief of Autumn after far too many overheated days. xx

    Love the bag-such a great size and the leather strap is so great. Was wondering if you would be interested in making one with a longer strap? I like to wear my purses over the opposite shoulder so they don't slide off...just an idea:)
