Here is a picture of my new Organic Cotton Tote. It is made of a very nice organic cotton canvas, very smooth to the touch, but tough. The lining is cotton canvas in flax. For the handles, I used a repurposed men's leather belt in chestnut brown.It is for sale in my Etsy shop (www.bagdujour.etsy.com) as well as in my Cargoh shop www.cargoh.com/store/bag-du-jour.

New Shop on Cargoh

I am so excited.... I applied to have a shop on Cargoh.com, a new venue for artists (not that call myself an artist) to sell their stuff, and I was approved :).  Cargoh is an online marketplace based in beautiful British Columbia, Canada. There you can find gorgeous stores from around world. 
Check out my Cargoh shop at http://www.cargoh.com/store/bag-du-jour and let me know what you think. It's a little sparse right now -  I sold a messenger bag there after less than a week of my shop's opening:)- but I will post more items this evening, including my newest messenger in olive green.

Happy Thanksgiving

The weather is turning gray and chilly. Is there snow in the forecast? We could have a white Thanksgiving on the Front Range...
So far today, I have made several dishes for our Thanksgiving feast tomorrow (sweet potatoes, stuffing, cranberry compote , green beans, and more potatoes). Things are looking good...
I might have time to escape to my studio and make a couple of bags before it's time to pick up the turkey - or take a nap :)
I love this day. Everything seems to slow down, a bit like the calm before the storm, and I am enjoying every minute...
I wish you all a very happy and peaceful  Thanksgiving holiday.
