I have been creating handbags for years and the learning process is just starting. Working with fabrics from my local craft store has been fun, but honestly I want something different. For months I have been studying, searching and researching methods and techniques for treating fabric and creating your own fabric design.

Here is a treated fabric I made for a tote. The tote was for a Christmas gift and the recipient loved it! She loved the colors. The base fabric used was a dark blue canvas, but the treatment made it unique. No other will come out the same, it may be similar, but not with the exact design. Love that!

This upcoming year has me very excited. What are you dreaming up for 2016?
