Etsy keeps getting better and better for me as a seller and you as a buyer! This week brings an Etsy credit card reader. It is the little thing that plugs into a cell phone to swipe credit cards. Now I can use this in person when my local customers want to buy direct from me! You don’t even have to be an Etsy member to buy from me in person.

iPhone 6 Wristlets Coming Soon

Posted in Sewing: Finished Bags & Pouches

Last week Apple released information on their newest phones. Now we have the dimensions of each of the two newest phones – iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. The iPhone 6 is a little longer than the iPhone 5 and the 6Plus is a quite a bit bigger.

Currently, I do have some zipper wristlets and clutches that will fit each of the phones on my shop. However I am tweaking my best selling wristlet to fit the longer iPhone 6. I have a whole stack cut and ready for sewing.

iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus wristlets cut and ready for sewing

I will be posting them in my shop by the end of this week. If there is a fabric that you would like, leave me an email or comment, and I will add it to my stack.

My thought on the larger iPhone 6 Plus is that it would be better protected in the zipper wristlets or in the extra padded clutches. This pretty butterfly and roses clutch is the newest of my padded clutches that are perfect for the iPhone 6 or any of the larger smartphones, phablets, or tablet phones.

This is clutch is up on my shop. Watch for more to be listed all week. 🙂

Always Bunnies in the Yard

Posted in Musing About Art, and Reference Photos

I’ve written over the years about the many, many bunnies that make our yard their home. They are still happily invading the garden and living the life around here.

This gal is sunbathing in the backyard. We are doing some reworking of the yard and she loves the dusty dirt to hang out on.

When I can, I try to catch some photos of them. Although this photo is a little blurry, it lets me see how her fur is colored and the proportion of her eyes and ears to her face. I haven’t painted rabbits in a while, but she would look marvelous in a painting. 🙂
