Preview of Coming Attractions

Each September feels like a new year to me. Something about the beginning of a new school year means so many other new beginnings.

This fall I am introducing new designs I've been working on for the past few months. Sustainability has been lacking in my business operation. Green, Eco-friendly sustainability is the core of Dancing Threads RI, but I mean something different. How consistently can I  provide a product to my customers?

For a few years now I have wanted to separate myself from the fleeting availability of fabric lines. This has led me in a meandering way to design my own bags with appliqué. Let me show you some examples.

Knitting Project Bags

Sheep Appliqué

Beach Tote

Wet Bag (Swimsuit Bag)

Wet Bag (Swimsuit Bag)

Cosmetic Bag

Market Tote

I'm still building the complete product lines with all the possible appliqué designs, but soon you will have choices of appliqué at checkout through Etsy.


Designs I have thus far:

• Lobster
• Sailboat
• Whale
• Swimsuits
• Anchor
• Bird
• Flower
• Owl
• Sheep
• Ball of Yarn
• Apple
• Peas and Carrots

You can see they focus on nautical, knitting and produce--the three most popular types of fabrics my customers like. I'm working on building a library of designs that I will have available in person for taking orders. I also am happy to entertain custom designs (an additional fee will apply). Some of these products are available now, but most have to be photographed and listed, or are still under construction (there are only so many hours in the day when raising even school-aged little ones!). If there's something you would like to see, please let me know! Send me an email, Facebook message, or leave a comment on this post.

Check out the new bags in person at the Norman Bird Sanctuary Harvest Fair Oct. 3-4!
