Today’s giveaway sponsor is Anna of Charmed Liebling. Anna is a pattern designer that specializes in bag patterns for the intermediate to advanced sewist. She has some amazing patterns in her shop for handbags, totes and wallets. All her patterns come will clear, easy to follow directions with photos for professional looking results.
Today’s lucky winner will win 5 PDF patterns of their choice from Anna’s pattern shop.
Some patterns include:
The California Sunshine Bag is a medium sized bag that is stuffed with pockets and is so stylish with the front pleats and will keep all your contents safe inside with a magnetic closure that is attached with an o-ring on the flap. This bag is both functional and stylish and would make a perfect every day bag!
A REMOVABLE TABLET SLEEVE! This sleeve closes with a zipper and it is padded for more protection for your tablet. It can be attached to the inside of the handbag with two buttons (or snaps). The sleeve measures 8.25 x 13 in (21 x 33 cm) and should fit most common tablets. Carry your tablet with you wherever you go without having it being thrown loosely into the bag. Now there is a designated compartment for it but you can use the sleeve separately as well.
What lovely patterns. I would love to win. Thanks for the chance to you and to Anna, the genius behind them. Making a purse from a pattern, instead of buying one off the rack, is so much better because you can make it like you want, with as many pockets as you want, and the size you want.
I carry my phone. Occasionally I carry my iPad. An optional case for that is a great idea.
My handbag almost always has some electronic device in it. Always have my phone in it, but also carry my iPad and/or Nook sometimes. Thanks for the chance to win some great patterns. Love all the bags, but would also like to make a wallet or two!
i often carry my mac in my bag and my phone…but it would be nice to have a sleeve for my ipad
Ok so I need a new wallet and am going to go check out those patterns. I love bags!
I carry my phone on a silicon case, maybe it is time I make a fabric pouch.
Fun patterns! I like the All Day Out bage.
Would love to win some of these patterns. Cool! I need a new wallet and a new bag….(always). Thank you. [email protected]
Yup yup, I carry my iPod in a humbug bag inside my regular bag!
Wow, love these patterns. Nice variety of styles that I would really carry. Would be great to win.
Have both our tablets in a padded bag.
Thanks for the chance to win!!
i made one for my kendle
I just carry my phone. Thanks!!
Oops, forgot to mention that I always carry both a tablet and a smart phone in my bags. Hit the post button too soon….pink face.
These are amazing! If I don’t win, I’m totally buying a few of these.
I only carry my phone, and if I have a pocket, it goes in there, otherwise, in a purse.
I don’t have a special case for my tablet but I do try to add a large pocket to my tote bags to accommodate one.
Phone always, haven’t broken down to purchasing a table yet, but hope to soon.
What beautiful patterns! I’ve always carried mine in bags, it’s fun being able to carry around bags I make myself.
I just carry my phon e. when i make bags I try to add a pocket for it
I carry my iphone all the time and sometimes my iPad. I use a desktop PC so I don’t have a laptop. Thanks for the giveaway!
Hi, the only electronic I carry in my purse is my phone, but I made a little travel wallet for my tablet when I am on a road trip…
I take my phone everywhere, of course, but if I”m going somewhere to visit all day or extended periods, I always have my iPad. Must have it!
I take my phone everywhere, but I don’t have a tablet. I do take my laptop with me a lot of places, but its too big to fit in all but the largest bags (15″ macbook pro). I do have it in a padded case though, when I do take it with me.
Usually just my phone
I carry my phone and often my laptop, sometimes my ipad as well. Thanks for the chance!
The bags are wonderful! Such a great prize to win! I do sometimes take my computer to school in a me-made laptop cozy made from a tutorial on sewmamasew.
I love making bags and would love to win!
I almost always have my Nexus in my purse. You never know when you’ll come across some free WiFi!
I love the look of these bags! So professional and stylish. I have a thirty-one bag that is slightly padded for my tablet but I think these would be so much better! I would love to win.
Hi Sarah, I must have missed something because I have no idea how this contest works – am I supposed to enter every time I receive an email?
Love those patterns! mumbird3atgmail.com
Wow! Lots of bag patterns I have never even seen before! This is a great series!
Yes, I have a padded case I made for my laptop that I use when I carry it on planes.
I love to make bags–but I don’t carry my laptop in one. It’s too large and would require a large bag–I’m only 5’4″ so the bag would probably dwarf me! 🙂
These look like really nice bags
I have a laptop bag that is black and boring.
I like the tablet bag. I have been looking for a bag just like that.
I don’t. I keep intending to make something for my phone.
I always have my smart phone and sometimes my iPad. Often on the weekends I end up with a child’s device as well. Makes for a heavy bag!
I made a pocket inside my last bag to perfectly fit my smartphone, and another that my Allerject (new version of an EpiPen) fits in so it’s always with me.
So far the only ‘tech’ I carry is my phone, and I do carry it in my bag. I’m learning to appreciate bags with smart pockets. The rest of the family all carry some tech with them, so bags patterns geared toward that end are definitely of interest.
I don’t carry much tech gear. Mostly just a phone, some times a Kindle, and very rarely an mini laptop. But who knows, with the right gear to haul it around, perhaps I would make the excuse to carry more things more often!!!
I’m so old school — I still have a flip phone. My phone has miraculously survived being dropped several times, so I guess it’s a given that I should make a nice case for it.
I don’t carry much tech gear. But my nieces and nephews do, so it is about time I make them something. Thanks
I sew a tablet sleeve, that I use to secure my tablet. I used to use a smartphone bag but my newest Smartphone I carry along with me only in a case.
I have sewed many zippy pouches for my phone & tablet. I Iove fabric so I love to change them out. Lol♡
Although I can’t make rafflecopter accept my entry for whatever reason, still wanted to say I LOVE these bags! I carry my tablet with me everywhere, and these would definitely help me do it in style! Thanks for the great work.
I can’t either Cindy 🙁
I almost always have my phone – if I don’t forget it :/
I sometimes take my iPad too and really need to make a bag with a pocket for it
I usually carry my ipod or phone. Sometimes my kindle! 🙂
I made a sleeve for my tablet but i rarely use it.
I carry my iPad in a case that I made … want to make one for my phone, but right now it’s in the Otter Box case.
I carry my phone in my bag … ! That’s an electronic device right
I made a laptop case for International travel and a lanyard case for my phone.
I carry mostly only my cellphone. It has a protective cover. When I carry my tablet I like to put it on a pocket in my bag since it already has a case.
I carry my kindle in a tote bag. crystalbluern at onlineok dot com
love the tech travel bag
I know it’s odd, but I rarely travel with electronics! If I do my husband has a laptop bag and I toss my Kindle in the luggage. Thanks for the chance to win!
Great looking bags! My cell phone is usually in my purse and when I travel, I carry my laptop and ipad in a carrying case. I’m one of those people that will lay something down and forget about it unless I put it IN something!
I only have a phone I carry in my bags…my Husband has laptop tho..in a case usually, that he got at Sam’s Club! lol
Always my phone and if I know I will have a long wait the kindle 🙂
Cell phone is always in there. Outside of wallet and a small knitting project, it is all I need!
I don’t have any bags devoted just to electronics, that seems pretty silly now that I think of it! Thank you for the giveaway.
Usually just carry my phone
I always have my phone, but occasionally my kindle.
I carry an emergency only phone. I am generally a person that technology hates. Love the patterns.
I have been following Anna for a while now and love what she does!
Wow, nice patterns for gifts… I make my friends bags all the time for their gadgets… these would hold tablets nicely… thanks for the generous giveaway!
Brilliant idea to have the sleeve snap into the tech travel bag! Thanks for the chance to win!
I carry my ipod in a bag inside my bag, and my telephone is in a leather case inside my bag. I need to make a bag for my new kindle.

I never go anywhere without my trust phone & quite often have both my ipad & camera.
Love bags with pockets to hold them away from my day to day living.
I don’t carry any tech devices around, except my phone, and I make a special pocket for that in all my bags. Thanks for the giveaway!
I always carry my phone with me and occasionally my tablet. Thank you for the chance to win!
I just love your purses! My fav is that Tech Travel bag!

I always carry my phone and occasionally my IPad, especially when I am traveling.
Love them all!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I habe an extra purse only for my New iPod 🙂
I have a laptop case and I don’t have a carrying case for my phone.

I love your patterns!!!!
I don’t have a tablet but have a case for my laptop. I’m so hard on my stuff!
I carry my phone in my bag. I used to carry my laptop in a separate bag made especially for it, but the laptop has given up the ghost. When I replace it I will make or get a new bag for it.
The only electronic device I carry regularly is my phone!
I always carry my phone and ipod in my bag. Now that I finished my studies I don’t need to carry my laptot with me. That patterns are great! Didn’t know that bag designer!
Thanks for hosting. It sounds fun. I am new to this but will participate this year:)
I just carry my phone or iPad in my purse
Love these patterns – especially the Tech Bag. I’m flying soon – that would be great to have!
I love, love love bags! Would really love to have the chance to win this fab prize
For years, the only bag that I have carried on a day to day basis is a diaper bag. lol So no, I don’t carry my electronics in there. My phone is always in my pocket and if I take my tablet, it’s already in a case (that I made), so it’s protected.
I carry my tablet in a case all the time, as for my cell phone, I’m planning to make a wallet for it. Thanks for the giveaway!
Sara, I just love Purse Palooza. So many new ideas and patterns to look at…thank you! I only carry my iPhone in a bag.
Only my phone leaves the house and it is in my pocket !!!
I always have my phone with me. Occasionally my kindle or my kids GameBoy DS.
I only own a laptop and it doesn’t leave my house, I don’t even have a cell phone, so the answer is no 🙂
Gorgeous bags, who wouldn’t want one
Whoops and only my iPhone, nothing else.
love all these bags 🙂
I never go anywhere without my phone in my bag.
Beautiful bags! Love all the compartments.
yes any electronic device I carry needs a wrapper to protect it. I do have a so-so one for my cell phone, but really need one for my E-reader and IPAD.
Fabulous bags – I love the tech bag!! I have cases and bags for them!
I always buy/make cases for my electronics, then somehow they all sit on various surfaces around the house while the gadgets get tossed willy nilly into a big bag as I race for the door. Sigh!
Great bags. They all look so professional.
I always use selfmade cases for my iPhone and Netbook.

I always carry my mobile phone in my bag, and usually my mini iPad too. I need help!
I usually add a dedicated pocket to my bags for my mobile phone
I need to make some bags for my electronics.
I always have my phone on me of course (it likes to live in it’s “Bowie” case I sewed for it), but I really want to make more bags that I could safely carry my iPad in!
