With a market only 10 days away, I'm not too sure this is the time to be drafting designs for new bags. But after almost two years of the same bags it's happened. I'm bored. Actually, I could just be procrastinating on making more of the same bags for the market, but I suspect this time it's boredom.
Plus people seem to be asking for bigger project bags these days, for their crochet, knitting and sewing (I'm one of them) and stuffing your half-made jumper into a bright green eco Coles shopping bag isn't overly fashionable I suppose.

We all need a little something different from time to time. I bet you come up with some amazing stuff..Good Luck!
ReplyDeleteThey say that "variety is the spice of life" - I would think designers need it too!
ReplyDelete10 days is plenty of time to get some new designs made! Good luck with it, plus it's always nice to add something new to your stall.
ReplyDeleteIts always fun to try out some new ideas...good luck with making some new bags...and with your market!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with youre new bags. I just had a look at your wonderful boxes for socks and sunnyboy pouches on etsy too!! Very creative!

Good luck with the market and your new designs. I can't wait to see what you come up with!
ReplyDeleteHave fun coming up with a new design. I love big bags to stuff all my crafty things into :)
ReplyDeleteThat's all part of the designing process, you have go with it when it strikes. And yes, I couldn't agree more, bigger project bags are a must, I cut out one yesterday for my blanket I'm working on, too many balls of wool floating around, and popping them into a grocery bag just seemed wrong LOL
ReplyDeleteUgh I hate those green bags!
ReplyDeleteSketching new things is sooo much fun, and the prefect way to procrastinate.
you will come up with something brilliant. i love my box for sox of crafty grab and go goodness and if it isn't big enough it goes into a bigger bag.
ReplyDeleteYou know I have just realised from reading this that I often stuff projects into a green bag and that I've thought, I should make something in basically the same size and pattern but in nice fabric. For shopping and craft!
ReplyDeleteobviously you are onto something with your new design!
How exciting. I definitely want a bigger project bag, even if I don't have a project.
ReplyDeleteDesigning and inspiration is all part of the fun. Seeing how crafty everyone is, it doesn't surprise me people need bigger bags!
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing like drafting a new design at the last minute before an upcoming market. I'm guilty of that, but still we need to let the creativity out or else boredom will set in.
ReplyDeleteI love the sock bags but longer ones for sweaters in progress would be great . good luck with the markets
ReplyDeleteYes, I decided that the green bags weren't very crafty and made a drawstring bag big enough for my crochet projects. It has worked beautifully. I think every crafter could do with at least one, so you should sell heaps! :)
ReplyDeleteOh, a project bag would be awesome! We dropped in to Material Pleasures on Saturday and the big girl now has a sunnyboy to go with her sock box
ReplyDeleteA bigger project bag would be great! Can't wait to see what you come up with!
ReplyDeleteHey there fellow procrastinator lady! Whatchaplanning? A few all nighters a few days before the market if you're anything like someone I know. (GOOD LUCK).
ReplyDeleteOoh, bigger bags! I can't wait
ReplyDeletevariety is good. New designs are good. Then you can come back to the old one a bit later on! Yay! No more boredom! Or by then you just need a new challenge. Look forward to seeing new bags.
ReplyDeleteI reckon it's greazt to mix it up and try something new for a market. Gives it a fresh energy, even if you only get a few made. I like idea of a "project" bag too. Good luck!
