An order filled

I just finished an order for a friend and her step daughter.  I think we did some cool things on their bags!  They chose the Flight Suit Bag, and a Small Messenger Bag.  Please see the posts on these two styles for more information.  Thanks!

The Diaper/Messenger Bag

I am so excited about this bag!!  It is awesome as a diaper bag, with pockets all over, but would also make a wonderful messenger/laptop bag, as it easily fits our MacBook Pro.  It has an inside zippered pocket, a key clip, and velcro closure.  As always, I can do this bag with either a green or tan flight suit, and any fabric of your choice.  Also as always, the bag comes without any patches, but I can gladly help you order your own custom patches, and sew them on for a $10 fee (I do need the patches ahead of time to do that).  The cost of this bag is $100.  For questions or to make a purchase, please feel free to leave a comment on this post, email me at sewingstoda@gmail.com, or visit my etsy site at http://www.etsy.com/shop/sstoda.  Thanks so much!

Bright Stripes

The latest finished flight suit bag.  It comes without patches (I can recommend a few sites to order them on), but with a divided inside pocket, a key clip, and velcro closure.  This one is darling, I have to say!  The bags are $75, and more details can be found on the original "flight suit bag" posting.  Any questions can be left as comments on this post, or you can email me at sewingstoda@gmail.com.  Thanks!




Small Messenger Bag

This bag is the size of a leg pocket on a flight suit...since that's where the front of it is taken from!  It's a messenger style with velcro closure on the flap.  These bags are $45.  Please leave a comment or email me at sewingstoda@gmail.com.

Flight Suit Hand Bag

Made with the two leg pockets of a flight suit.  The patch is not included, just stuck on for photos as an idea of what can be added to finish the look.  This bag is super cute without any patches, as well!  The hand bag is $40, and as always can be customized with any liner fabric you choose.  Bags can be purchased by commenting on this post, by emailing me at sewingstoda@gmail.com, or by checking out my etsy site under the user name sstoda.  Thanks!




Patches!!

For those interested in the various flight suit bags, but don't have access to military patches, check out mardonco.com.  They can do names and common military patches, along with fully customized patches!  Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions (sewingstoda@gmail.com) and I can try to help you navigate the world of military acronyms to get you what you want, and if I have the patches before I make your bag, I can sew them on for you!

Handmade Dresses

These dresses are slightly different than the pillow case dresses in that I start from scratch with lengths of fabric, and they also have elastic around the neck and the ribbon just on the shoulders.  These are $35 each, and come with a removable silk flower that is darling either pinned onto the dress itself, or onto a headband or hair clip.  

Also pictured is a hair wrap.  These can be made to match any dress set, and are $10 each.

Please leave me a message on this post, or email me at sewingstoda@gmail.com if interested.







  

Pillow Case Dresses

Dresses made from pillow cases, $15 each.  My girls each wear these, in the winter they are darling with a shirt underneath and jeans/leggings.  These are great for making matching sets, too, as pillow cases often come in sets of two.

Please either leave me a message on this post or email sewingstoda@gmail.com if interested. 






The Flight Suit Bag

After much demand, here is my version of the flight suit bag!  They come flight suit included, but without patches, for $75 each.  The inside has a divided pocket, a key clip, and velcro closure (having a little trouble with those pictures, so check back later and I'll hopefully get those up).  The photos of the bag with patches are my own personal bag, and are up just for some ideas of what a finished product can look like.

I am currently working on several more with a variety of lining fabrics, so check back often as I'll post those as I finish them.  I also would LOVE to customize a bag for anyone that wants to do that, you can choose your own liner fabric, and I will do my best to fulfill any other requests.  I also would love to sew your patches on for you, but I need them ahead of time, and there is a $10 fee for that. 

Feel free to leave comments on this page, or to email me at sewingstoda@gmail.com.  Thank you!!
