While working on the wallhanging for Josh's friend, it suddenly hit me that if a wallhanging would be a nice gift how much nicer would a totebag for her be?? She is a teacher after all and lugs all manner of stuff around.
And that's when the "lightbulb moment" occurred!!!
We have all seen t'shirts, bags, cups, etc with pictures of pets, kids, grandkids, SO's etc on them...
Well I am going to begin taking orders for customized totebags with quilted portraits on them!! Two styles..the kind like Josh's picture and the kind like Lucy's picture. I already have a request to attempt a pet picture...wish me luck on that please :-). Totes will include the picture and the fabric that is requested (like Josh in his fishing hat on fishing tackle fabric) and can be made in several sizes. They have 2 inner pockets and an attached keychain holder.
After the holidays I may branch out and attempt other types of bags...lunchbags for small children with their pictures on them...or pics of mommy??? Who knows?
Any comments on this idea?
