I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Ours was great! Family, fellowship, and food. It doesn't get better than that! I was thinking a lot yesterday about all of the blessings in my life and how thankful I am for each of them. I've had great joy and great loss in my life and yesterday I was thankful for all of it! It's a blessing to know how precious life is.
That said; I wanted to say thank you to my followers who took a chance on a new blogger! I'm so thankful God gave me the desire to create and even more thankful that while I'm home ALL THE TIME with my precious ones, I can still feel connected to women all over the world. You truly are a blessing and to say thank you I want to give each of you a FREE clutch. The design you get will be a surprise. All you have to do is leave me a comment on this post. Anything you wish. I will also honer this for any new comers who become followers before December 20th.
Please e-mail me after you leave a comment if you have your e-mail blocked in your profile. I can only contact you if your e-mail is open to the public.
Thanks again! Here are a few new clutches. You can also check out more here and here
I made this with some Joel Dewberry fabric that I had left over from another project. It's actually really cute in person. I wish the ruffle was a little higher however.
This is the back
This was made out of an Anthro placement. I guess I'm in a ruffle mood. I really want to keep this one! It's so feminine and fun!
This is the back and it's lined in an off white linen.
This one is from the rest of the Anthro placement. The bottom and back are a contrast fabric and it is also lined with an off white linen.
Here is the back. Really funky!
This one you have seen before. I just made a new one for a lovely lady who just had a baby. This one makes a great bridal shower gift and is the clutch I will be sporting to 2 Christmas parties this year. I love Christmas parties!
Thank you for being you!

Hi Jeanine. It is for real if you are interested in being a follower. I originally made clutches to raise funds for the adoption of our baby girl. She is here now and I have supplies left so I thought this would be a creative way to give this season. I just don't have the time to sell anymore but still like to create fun clutches from time to time. Just don't forget if you are a follower to send me an e-mail if your account is not open to the public or I won't be able to contact you.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderfully sweet of you! I love all of the clutches you have made, especially the ruffled ones! Thank you so much

Your clutches are gorgeous! I'm following you, but what I'd like to do is swap, rather than just receive a clutch...I make hats! I'd love to swap you a hat for a clutch, anytime...

ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteyour blog is really cool! I found you by looking for sewing blogs. Thanks for the awesome gift!
Good Morning, Jeannine! I am imagining you are going to be quite overwhelmed in making these very beautiful little clutches for all of us ladies here, but even so, I also think it will be a special blessing for you! I will be patient and wait and hope when I receive mine, that I can also learn from it and make some of my own for the women friends and family in my life. I am a newcomer here, but already so thankful for your site and inspired by you. I think my email is open on my profile, but just in case, it is lindadfine@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteKindest wishes and blessings,
Linda
Oops!!! I am so sorry I misaddressed you, Steffanie...the wee hours of the morning and my mind is a little foggy. :o)
ReplyDeleteAlso, I want to comment that I think it's awesome you are home schooling your children! I home schooled my daughter and two sons and now two of them are artists and one is a chaplain's assistant in the army. I also have two other children - my youngest son and daughter whom I am still home school. You, Steffanie, are a busy, busy bee! :o)
Hugs,
Linda ( lindadfine@gmail.com )
Steffanie, may I ask, where did you come across the beautiful silky material with the little bird in the branches? It reminds me of a partridge in a pear tree. :o) Sooooo pretty!
ReplyDeleteLinda ( lindadfine@gmail.com )

Also, I'm not sure if adding to my google reader is the same as "following", but that's what I've done....
I love them! I would love to have one but please put me at the bottom of the list because I make purses myself. I would love to know where you get the hardware. I haven't been able to find any that are as pretty as the ones on your purses.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely blog - your work is fantastic and you get it done with small children and home schooling. Congratulations!
