my craftsy class, yay !!!

Hello lovelies, remember when I talked about the amazing opportunity I had a few weeks back when I flew to Denver and recorded a sewing class with Craftsy ? Yeah, the class is now live and it all is super surreal, and exciting, and intimidating all at the same time, eeeeek !!! My class Giftable Projects: Zippered Bags and Purse Organizer is a six lesson class with detailed instructions and lots of tips on how to make three different zipper pouches. Would you like to see the pouches I designed for the class? Here we go.  Easy Coin Pouch with removable wrist strap is the first (and easiest project). I love this sweet little pouch and have made quite a few of them for my daughters and their friends already.  The second pouch I teach is Double Zip pouch which makes a perfect pencil pouch or make up bag. I'm also thinking it would make a great hand sewing supplies pouch. Oh, the possibilities :) Last, but definitely not least, is this Keep it Ne...

back to school, back to work

I must admit, I'm quite enjoying this new back to school routine. I almost forgot how much one can accomplish in just a few quiet, uninterrupted hours each day :).


Screen printing is my absolute favorite thing to do these days so I burned a few new screens and printed and printed. Oh, the bliss!!!


 These two prints are my most favorite at the moment. I think I'll use the first one to make myself a tote bag and those scattered triangles will be perfect for quilting.

I listed tons of new panels in my etsy shop in case you're interested in grabbing a few.

And, good news for my non-US friends,  ALL MY FABRIC PANELS AS WELL AS KITS CAN NOW BE SHIPPED INTERNATIONALLY!!!!


Wishing you all a very lovely and creative week. Svetlana

bagmaker tuesday no.6 (waxed canvas megan tote)

I've been meaning to make myself a new handbag for a few weeks now but, once again, I found it crazily difficult to choose just the right design as well as fabric. I wanted a sturdy medium sized bag with handles and removable crossbody strap, lots of pockets, and a zipper closure. Totally doable, don't you think? Oh, and I wanted to use waxed canvas for the main body as I love its water resistant quality and beautifully "rugged" look. So, after much back and forth, I finally decided to make myself a bag based on my  Megan Foldover Tote pattern. I skipped the installation of exterior zipper pocket as suggested in the pattern and added two large slip pockets to my front exterior instead. And while I love zipper pockets, I think this option is actually better for me as I use one slip pocket for my phone and the other one for my keys and this whole set up makes my everyday running around a bit less stressful. One thing that used to stress me when working with waxed canvas...
