Extra! Extra! (Without Sugar Ray)
Remember when I said one CAOK participant would be randomly drawn for a bag of his/her liking? Well Em was the grand prize winner — as much as I wanted to create a manbag/murse, it wasn’t meant to be this time around; she wanted something simple and in neutrals. Voila, the latest Amy Butler Frenchie bag out of the last of my Ikea fabric. The trim is in black fabric with tiny red cherries. I’m calling this one my newspaper bag…
Wait for it.
That’s right — because it’s black, white and red all over. (Yep, my humor is still stuck in the second grade.)

May 17th, 2007 at 3:02 pmSo freakin’ cute. And I love the second grade humor. Also bad puns. Goofy humor is the way to my heart (my husband can confirm).
May 17th, 2007 at 3:02 pmI love it, with the little bits and bobs of color in the handle.
