Great vintage fabric.  A nice lightweight canvas with green/yellow/gold print.  I think that it was meant for curtains, but it gets a lot more attention as a purse.
This red canvas was a good weight for a purse, but a little plain.  I added gold eyelets that let the pretty gold satin peek through.  The combination of red and gold is really nice. 
Some of my early designs involved repurposing flannel-backed vinyl tablecloths.  Theyre strong and completely weather-proof. This bag is really fun for the beach or park.
This is a design from last summer.  It started out as a bag for 4th of July, but the colors and patterns are good for the whole summer.

My hobo-style bags feature long straps so that you can wear them across your chest, or over your shoulder.  They close with a button or snap.  They're big enough for all your stuff, but they won't overpower you.
