Grab Bags began just over four years ago as I was searching for a new project in my recently remodeled sewing studio. My first purse was black with lime green spots, chosen simply because I had so much of the particular fabric that if my design flopped at least I wouldn't have sacrificed much. Once I started carrying my first bungee cord purse I was given so many compliments and requests for orders that I began branching out and experimenting with different designs and patterns, and from that Grab Bags was launched.
Today I travel far and wide searching for the most appealing fabrics and trimmings. As a librarian by day, I do most of my best work in the late evenings and early mornings. My husband has even given up his evenings to help cut, grommet, and hang. And yet it's still a joy to watch each new design come to life!
If you happen to be in Lincoln, Nebraska you are always welcome to stop by the studio and browse through all of our newest bungee cord purses. We also make an appearance at several craft shows throughout the year and will post the dates and locations as our calendar permits.
Thank you for your kind interest in Grab Bags! We look forward to earning your confidence with our creative designs and quality craftsmanship.
