Indian design Messenger bag....Made it a little smaller than the larger version. Will till hold everything, including the kitchen sink and a laptop, only neater. Used design from an Indian tunic as the front flap and added beading, etc. 
Long straps make it comfortable to sling on opposite shoulder.
First large quilt...1993.....Christmas sampler. Made it in a class in Fredericton, New Brunswick. Took about 3 months, and was fun to do, but I had no idea what I was doing. Oh well, I am really glad that I got it finished.
Who doesn't love a wedding? These little bags are lined with cotton, with the outside consisting of satin or silk, with drawstrings, adorned with froo-froos such as pearls and fancy laces. Easy to do, actually. I just cut the size fabric for the outside and the lining( eyeballed, not measured, no pattern)....because it's more fun to guess how you want it to look. Makes it much more of a challenge....you have no idea how it will look in the end. It is preferable to make them all different. The drawstring is sewn between the lining and the outside fabric, and tied off on the ends. Beading is added at the very end.
These are brown/gold pointsettias.....I think they are so cool.......ringed the quilt with gold beads. I was making it for a friend, but liked it so much decided to keep it.....naughty me...had to make something else instead.....
Triangles are from the Flying Geese pattern.....get it: fall/geese....clever.
Log Cabin Totes.....if you look close enough you can see the face of Elvis peeking out from the log bars.....you know your famous when your face appears on fabric.
Fringed and beaded pouch purses....made for a birthday present. These are lined with cotton. Such a simple pattern....can make any size. Not filled with batting, because then they become bulky. Just fairly stiff lining. No pattern required. Go crazy with fabric pieces and trims. Be creative. Way too much fun.
