My Bag of many colours (to misquote Dolly Parton)

It’s that experimental time of the year again!

I have been working on new fabric designs, which you will be the first to hear about, but, in the meantime I have collected a few pairs coloured jeans that have been nagging me from their pile in the corner of the sewing room. They keep saying “use me, make me beautiful, upcycle me for a higher purpose”

With this in mind I have been matching my existing fabrics with a veritable assorted rainbow of coloured denim and I will have a limited design of unique bags available on my website over the coming days and weeks.

On another point, Coco the cat found the location of the new sewing room within minutes and is now almost relentlessly battering the window in and making her presence felt. It appears that she is grabbing my attention when she needs access to food or in most cases is pointing out that a door in her empire is closed. This was quite cute for the first few days but is now overwhelming my fitbit (which I’m now considering renaming my fitnessbycatbit) as she gets me up to open the front door and heads immediately to the back door and screams to get out again.

“Once again I say, Oh the glitz. oh the glamour of being a bag lady….”
