Clutchapalooza, Grr Argh and a Pink Skull

I had a craft show in Ann Arbor yesterday ... thus the every night sewing last week. On Friday I spent the day making clutches. They were one of the most looked at items at the show...along with the messenger bags. I think I will make another batch of these for my next show...whenever that is.
note: these pics were taken before ironing...thus the wrinkles...





I finished up the Grr Argh messenger bag Saturday. That bag helped bring in a sale ...from the male half of a couple. He is a Whedon fan and stopped to look at the bag ...then brought his wife over. She went home with one of my clearance bags - the Red Grosgrain Ribbon handbag.


Bye bye Red handbag....


I almost got this bag done Saturday night, but I was afraid that if I spent any more time on itI would be up way too late double checking my stuff for the show.

I see why those clutches were such a hot item. The shape is just too cute! And I love all of the prints...I was going to say especially the skulls one, but especially all of them, actually!

I can see why the clutches were so popular :) I like smaller purses...and the green one is my fave :)

COngratulations--I really like what you did with the messenger bags. MY DH told me that I needed to hurry up and make my messenger bags because my webbing is taking up so much room....
And I agree with everyone about the clutches. I have a pleated clutch that was my Moms--I think of it as a classic.
