Karen’s Opinion

Wow! When the contest to win this bag began, it seemed as though there was plenty of time to enter. The days are slipping away! Enter to win at Kreated by Karen or simply click on the picture.

I am so IN THE MOOD to get together with other quilters and see what they have been doing these past few months. Our quilt guild takes a break during November, December and January so I have not seen my quilting buddies. We meet tonight! I am taking a few things that I have made for show and tell.

I made this table topper for the end table in my office.

I made this table cloth for the oak table in our lodge room.

I’ll let you know what the other ladies have made. See ya!

Hey, if you are stocking up on gifts for next Christmas, I have lowered the price on one of my Christmas purses. This purse measures 16″ w x 8″ tall and has a 4″ depth.

The handles have a 10″ drop and measure 25″ from handle end to handle end. It fits great over the shoulder or to carry by the handles. The outside pocket is great for grabbing keys and cell phones quickly. It is quilted heavily with batting and is a sturdy well made purse. The handles are reinforced with double stitching and I used two thicknesses of timtex to make them very durable. It closes with a heavy duty zipper.

It has three inside pockets!

I love the fabric covered button.

Feel free to wander over to my Etsy Shop to see the other purses I have made.

I made this bag for a friend. I noticed that I had cut off the witch’s head at every seam! Isn’t that crazy?

My eyes are buggy from sewing all weekend! I finally remembered to keep track of my time and discovered that it takes me 5 to 6 hours to make one purse. I’m slow but I like to take my time and do a good job.

I made this bag from a fabric from Moda called Peace on Earth. You would think it would be a Christmas fabric but it is not.

See all the pockets inside!



I made this purse from a striped fabric. I tried something new and made the outside pocket in a curved shape.

You can purchase these bags from my Etsy site as soon as I upload them.
