So This is what Happened.......


The crazy colors I was playing with turned in to these!  My newest wallet creations.  I really like this one, it's a bit smaller than the large pouch that I carry as my wallet, but still big enough to throw a whole bunch o' stuff in.  Lots of card pockets, a big slip pocket, and a zipper pocket.  I particularly like the teal one.  I also have one in red and one in purple to sew up once I am done with my latest custom order.   I  am also waiting on some interfacing and trying my hand at dyeing my own cotton for the lining of my wallets.  I happened to inherit a bunch of cotton fabric from my mom and am thrilled to be playing with some dye soon.  Yay!  and Thanks Mom!

Grey, Green, Purple, Blue, Lavender, Brown, and more GREY!


I am working on a new wallet pouch thingy and I came up with some combinations of colors that I really like.  They are weird, but I like them.  I've got some pale green, grey, purple, and bright blue, I think I may have puked with this one a couple of years ago, and the picture doesn't make it look very interesting, but it really is!  (To me anyways)  The second is a sort of dusty teal with more grey, lavender, and dark brown, and I love it!  I made a custom wallet in the same colors for someone just  few weeks ago and was not completely sure if the colors would work, but they did and I really like it now.  So much that I am making a few things for my shop with this same color scheme.  It's fun to play!  I am still loving red, grey and black, and grey, violet, and black too!  So you will probably see a few more of those combos coming up shortly.  I never thought I would like grey suede so much!
