Hi friends, do you have a minute to share your opinions? I've been playing around with sewing some bags made from art prints. These are just little test bags, the gift bag would be printed on a dressier fabric rather than the twill but I only wanted to order one piece of fabric this time. If you or someone you know would ever pick up things like this at a craft fair or on etsy could you please offer me a little feedback below? Specifically I'm wondering what sizes and types of bag are most useful to you, and would you prefer I keep them as cheap as possible or are there features that you'd like even if it would raise the cost a bit like flat bottom, pockets, lining, etc. Thanks! 😀

When the shutdowns started last year I knew I needed to keep drawing to keep sane. My kids and I did a lot of chalk drawing on the driveway and through that I met a local author and joined her on her journey to create her first children's book. This is her gift to her now grown children and especially suited to families with multiple kids to answer the question once and for all: who is the favorite child?

You can sign up at the short google form linked below for updates and info on how you can help promote the book. Your info goes directly to the author, Gretchen, and is not being used for other purposes. Thanks for your time and support! :)
