the sweat shop

Bags, bags and more bags...

 

 

Of course,

I'm calling this one a knitting bag.

I purchased several of these stamped panels

 awhile back with absolutely no project in mind.

 

 

Using them as pockets on my bags came to me last week...

and boy was I excited about the idea.

 

And I always love creating tote bags

with upholstery fabrics.

 

 

When I see an old carpet bag in a historical movie...

like on the series Hell On Wheels last week...

I know I will be stitching one up soon.

I love the colors in this one.

 

 

I'm calling this large tote

the newspaper bag.

 

 

It definitely has a masculine look

with dad's wool coat, denim, corduroy and flannel

all used in it.

 

 

It is lined with a newspaper print.

 

 

This is what was "going on" in the

Dakota Maid sweat shop last week.

 

 

This week I am knitting baby booties

 for our Dakota Kid shop

as we received several special orders for them.
