A custom made bag on a trip to Estonia!






Many thanks to Becky for sending these awesome pics of herself and her custom made Panther Deluxe Messenger Bag. She contacted me and told me she had fallen in love with a specific fabric, could I do a bag for her, using it on the flap and pockets. She found the fabric she wanted and sent it my way. 
She sent these wonderful pictures along with the following:

"Well, my Zoƫ Bag went to Germany and Estonia and Finland and was the perfect carry-on the whole time.
I see many years of use once I start teaching my college art classes again, too.
As promised, here are some pictures of me with my bag at a place called "Polli Talu" (means Polly's Farm), located on the west coast of Estonia, not far from the peninsula of Virtsu.
I lived there for 2 weeks while I worked on an art project of mine."

Many thanks to Becky for sharing these with us!

Looking For a Witch Purse or Shoulder Bag? I have the Nightshade line

I still have the popular line of fabrics called Nightshade, by designer Tula Pink, whose fans are called Tula Troops.
Featuring the 3 Von Black sisters, they each have an awesome back story, which can be read in the listings in my shop.

These bags sell fast when I make them, and no wonder, the sisters are amazing, and the co-ordinate prints are wonderful too. I try to make each bag with a different co-ordinate as well.
Here's a sample of the bags in the shop now, featuring our favorite witches. 

This is Neptunia Von Black in the Absinthe colorway, used on an Otter Hipster Bag

Japanese Pagoda and Koi Pond cross body bag extraordinaire

http://www.zoesbagboutiqueshop.com/item_3959/Pagoda-and-Koi-Pond-Britta-zippered-tote.htm 


I have been saving this print for just the right bag. As so often happens with the larger scale motifs, the Britta is the bag. It's the perfect size, and shape, to really showcase these types of fabrics. Plus it's my top of the line zippered tote, with an awesome lining, my ever popular Zoe Pocket Set and a key clip, so it's an all around useful, and beautiful bag.

 I only have one panel of this print, so this is a true one of a kind bag. Stay tuned for more Brittas as I work to build inventory for your upcoming shopping needs :-)
