Big changes to the blog!

Earlier this year I did a major redesign on my website. Now it's time to do the same for this blog! I have launched a new blog that will be on a different blogging platform, Wordpress rather than Blogger. 

This change gives me a new look for the blog which will match the new look for the shop. It also gives me some great features for sharing photographs of you and your bags. It integrates the photo gallery I have had for years, right into the blog.

It's a great new look and I plan on blogging more often. To those of you who have followed this blog via email or other feeds over the years, thank you. Please join me on the new blog here. If you are subscribed via email I will move that subscription to the new blog so you will still get notifications. You can unsubscribe if you wish, though I hope you will stay. You can also sign up for an RSS feed of the new blog.

I created this blog in 2007. Wow time flies. It's time for an update to move it into the world of 2019. This blog will still be on line, but the place to read new posts is here.

Thanks for all your support, see you Behind the Seams!

Zippered tote bags to wear cross body or on your shoulder with a haunted house, birds and flowers, Tula Pink's Tabby Road cats or Japanese cranes and mums.

My medium Honeysuckle zippered tote bag is a simple design that can be used to carry so many things without the risk of them falling out when you set the bag down!

An adjustable shoulder strap allows you to change the length to fit the way you like to carry your bags, on your shoulder or cross body.

I have an assortment of beautiful designs available, and as always custom orders are welcome. Sized at 15" wide, 11" tall and 3.5" deep there is plenty of room to carry what ever you need without it seeming bulky.

Find them in my shop here. I also have a small and a large version.

Mahjong storage set, a zippered tote bag for racks and pushers with a flat bottom bag for tiles!



My Mahjongg storage set was designed due to customer requests for something easy to use and nice to look at too.

The zippered Tote-ster is a tote designed to carry four Mahjongg racks and pushers and the Large Zini is a flat bottom zippered bag for the tiles. No more time spent putting the tiles back into a case, just sweep them into the Large Zini and zip it closed. Set the racks in the bottom of the Tote-ster, slide your card into the pocket and set the Large Zini on top of the racks. You are good to go!


Many of these sets are one of a kind which makes them even more special. Check out the sets I have in stock. 

Custom orders are always welcome. 

I have a variety of storage options for your Mahjongg equipment, plus zippered pouches just for your Mahjongg card with an inner pocket for coins.

Witches and Wizards Bookshelf Lynx Deluxe Messenger Bag

I could not resist using this awesome bookshelf fabric for a messenger bag. It's a bookshelf for a witch or wizard and I am sure it will appeal to many people including fans of Harry Potter.

This Lynx Deluxe messenger bag has pockets inside for organizing, plus a bottle sleeve and a key clip. On the sides you will find an open pocket and a zippered pocket. The shoulder strap is adjustable so you can wear it as a cross body bag as well.
