Cross Body Green Knitted Fabric Purse

If you've ever knitted  batik fabric strips, you know it's a bit

challenging on the hands but gives great results.  

So when I changed my style from this  Back Pack Knitted Fabric Purse

I re purposed the knitted portion in a smaller simple cross body purse

 I added a fun flower fabric along with the quilted section of the

Back Pack Knitted Fabric purse.

Quilted/Knitted Backpack Purse

I designed a Quilted/Knitted Backpack Purse. It's great for keeping my hands free. It's made of knitted strips of batik fabric and then the same quilted fabric purse on top. The lining has pockets for lipstick, cell phone, pen and pencil. It's embellished with my favorite verse stamped on ultrasuede, various buttons, and strips of fabric. Any ideas of how to publish my pattern?

Black Batik Fabric Knitted Purse

 Although hand bags are great, I prefer using a back pack purse.

It's perfect for keeping hands free.

This one is for sale in my Etsy shop created from black fabric knitted with metal buttons embellish along with

 "Choose Life" Deuteronomy 30:19" stamped onto Ultra Suede
Fully lined and includes pocket and pen/pencil slots.

Knitted Purse Fabric

GW Boutique (Goodwill) was the spot where I found this batik rayon fabric which I plan to cut into 1/4 inch strips and knit into my next purse!  I'm thinking the waist ties would be great for the shoulder strap.  Stay tuned.

FAA Show & Tell

Fiber Arts Alliance is always inspiring

even when challenging weather causes

sparse attendance. 

Ann knitted and felted this wonderful purse and

even though she didn't like how the chenille yard

didn't felt, the consensus was that it added

fun interest.

See the zipper closure/decoration on this
fun loop scarf made from ribbed fabric.
Great accent piece.

Ribbons From The WNC State Fair

 I'd never entered the State Fair 

even though my friend, Joy encouraged me each year as she did.

That is until, Joy passed away and now

I enter each year in her honor.  

You can read about this knitted fabric quilted purse here.

 And this reversible Clergy Stole 

is for sale in my Etsy Shop.

 This is the reverse side.

 AND - this wall hanging also won a blue ribbon.

I'm so humbled and excited that my art found favor at the Fair.

FAA Workshop and BAGS

 At the recent Fiber Arts Alliance, I did a brief workshop on creating this button necklace which repurposes many buttons and is a great accent piece. 

With 62 memebers present, our space was bulging.  The "theme" was BAGS and there was quite a variety  from Robin's knitted and felted huge red bag

to this embellished placemat

to this usage of "extra  bug blocks".

 I had forgotten the BAGS theme since I was doing the workshop but was using this purse.
