New workspace







This new work space has completely changed my outlook on life! Getting out of the house to work, having a space to do graphic work, sewing, painting, right next door to some other cool artists. It's a wonderful space, small but extremely accomodating. I'm looking forward to all the things I can get done in here!

More not-so-recent work


Recycled patent belt for a bright new strap and some gorgeous printed cotton. The first of many new sling bags, this one sent out to Whistler, BC for Christmas.


Another belt turned strap/deco on this sage cut velvet, one of my favorite fabrics. Green linen interior.



I have admittedly taken this one out for it's fair share of "test drives". I could almost call it my own by now. With a colourful damask detail on the sober checked black & white background, a recycled strap with brass details. It's a big gorgeous bag! Lining is a heavy black twill. Gives the whole thing a nice sturdiness to it.


Oh, I love this Edith Wharton for Schumacher print. It was so hard to actually cut up and use, but it's great with a wool pinstripe and denim straps. It's got a nice stiff interlining to keep a rounded almost briefcase type shape.


Another interpretation of the sling bag, smaller and more practical for evenings out? One of my favorite winter wools paired with a slinky black ribbon detail and a light miniature houndstooth black & navy interior.

Amy Lue Special



Amy Lue is already darn special as it is, but here's a bag I made for her especially, with a pair of vintage wool felt pants she found. Complete with water bottle holder and cell phone pocket, lots of engineering went into keeping this recurring client happy as can be! xoxo

New Custom Purses







These are a couple of purses I made for two great gals, as surprise Christmas gifts. Happy Holidays!
