bean bag

Posted on July 17, 2005 by mariko

I wanted to make a little something to thank Que (also known as Bean) for showing Thuy and me around Los Angeles, so I made, you guessed it, a little tote!

I used the Hasi Hester vintage fabric I scored a while back. Que runs a wedding flower business, so I thought the pussywillows were appropriate.

    Oh, that bag is yummylicious! And I love that “Thank Que” (assuming I’m pronouncing it correctly) sounds like “Thank You.” Hee.

    Where on earth do you score all this wonderful fabric. I was just at my closest fabric store (after a 45 minute drive, no less) where I saw nothing even close to that nice. What a waste of dye some of the things I saw were. Or, maybe it’s just that any fabric could look good on one of your totes.

    Beautiful! I love how the branches curve on the bag.
    Missed so many entries, missed you while in Los Angeles! Argh! Are you going to move to Santa Barbara?
