custom bag: laurel burch fanciful felines

My friend Cathy loves bags, loves fabric and loves cats. When she saw my faux leather bag, she wanted the same thing, only bigger and with two handles. She’s going to use this to store and transport her mini swift and yarn winder. (Yep, she loves knitting, too!)

thrifting: Most of the bags I make for Cathy are from thrifted materials. She’s the only one I know who goes to Goodwill more often than I do. I forgot to ask her if that is where she got this tapestry, but I’m betting it was! It’s a Laurel Burch from the Fanciful Felines collection.
