Staying Motivated

With this nice weather it's hard to stay motivated and stay indoors and create. I have gotten some work done. Last week I finished up some Tote Purses. I think they will be great as shopping bags or even a weekend bag. I also took another crack at the Reversible Purse Pattern I found on BurdaStyle this time it came out much better.
 I used a nice pin stripe fabric that I had saved up for maybe maybe making a suit with.


 I am so proud of this one. I also made a larger square version of this one called the Charlie from Burdastyle.



I am working on my shop  together for Fall. I plan to have a full inventory by October.

Summer Crochet

Although it's summer we can still enjoy wearing crochet accesories. I use 100% cotton yarn for Spring and Summer projects. Its light weight and really comfortable to wear during the warm Season. Recently I have made several of these bucket style sun hats. Their the perfect accessory for those bad hair days during Summer. I have listed one in my shop. The pattern is very easy to follow and only requires a little bit yarn.. Here is a look at some of my Summer Crochet.
