An Old Favorite is Back!

I thought some of you may be interested in the evolution of my carpet bags...
This is an old pic of a carpet bag that I made several years ago. There is an hand sewn vinyl strap attached, which is obsolete now (I now send fabric straps out with the bags). Sometimes the fabric matches the body of the bag and sometimes it matches the top trim (casing).

But the reason I am showing the pic to you is because I have found more of this  fabric! ...only enough for 2 bags... "Night Grapes" is a special fabric as you can see. When I sold out of this carpet bag a few years ago, there were some sad people.

This recent fabric find (and probably others later on)will not get added to my website...with 118 fabrics already being offered, top priority for me now is shipping out Christmas orders. If your heart falls for this bag, the price is $300.00. Just email your shipping info to metinnc@gmail.com . I hope to keep one for myself this time but if I have to, I will be a good loser.

New Fabrics!


 

 

These are just some of the new fabrics I've recently purchased. This is a busy time of year but I just couldn't resist! I have many fabrics to choose from which can be seen on my website (http://www.carpetbagreplicas.com/)

You Won't Want To Miss the Christmas Show

What a wonderful show it is this year. From the moment you enter Christmas is in the air.
There is a wide assortment of gifts and decorations and just a fun holiday filled spirt as you meander the show.
Don't miss the display at space 813...that would be mine! I'd love to show you the newest bags I've added to the collection!

Enjoy the show,
Margaret
