miss scarlett & friends

Meet Miss Scarlett,
made from a vintage barkcloth curtain panel...


She has an old button front and back,
loads of inside pockets,
leather handles,
and a spring-loaded metal frame opening.
She has high hopes of becoming
a knitting/crochet/project bag,
or an overnight bag,
or maybe even a large handbag.


Though it will be hard to see her go
she's been listed in the firefly farm shop
along with a couple new clothespin bags...




Thanks for taking a look,
and hope you have a beautiful fall weekend!

    Miss Scarlet is lovely...all your bags are so nice.
    I enjoy your blog so much and want to thank you for the dishcloth pattern. I have made about a billion of them. You have amazing taste, and would love to take you shopping for fabric, as I pass right over what turns out simply adorable in your projects. :)

    Deb you've outdone yourself with Miss Scarlet.  The pockets!  So useful.  I wish I had your sewing skills.

  5. LOVE the new bag and the clothespin bags!  The fabrics are great.  Wish I could hang my clothes outside here but half the year is "rainy season" and the other half is a "dry season" which would leave the clothes covered in dust!  I do remember helping my Mama hang out clothes and her clothespin bag...

    I love all your bags, but the carpet-bagger-type bag, with the dark brown leather strap handles, is my favorite.  Love your site!  Melissa
