Today’s giveaway sponsor is Janelle of Emmaline Bags. Janelle is a pattern designer, who has designed a fantastic collection of unique, modern, and easy to follow sewing patterns that will help you create gorgeous handbags and purses. Janelle also sells some incredible (both in apperance and quality!) purse hardware that is sure to add the perfect, professional touch to your bags.

One lucky winner will will their choice of 4 pdf patterns AND receive $10 store credit – what a fantastic prize from Emmaline Bags!  With so many patterns to choose from, its going to be hard to pick just 4! Some of the patterns you could choose include…

The Manhattan Bag pattern includes instructions for a gorgeous shoulder bag in 2 sizes (Mamma & Miss), whoo hoo!  2 bags to make in one great pattern!

The Manhattan is extremely fun to make and very unique, because the front flap actually zips open along it’s edge! Why? So you can put cool stuff in it!! Janelle has even included instructions for the aforementioned “Removable Case” and this actually sticks into the flap with (optional) velcro and is….. wait for it….. removable!! This case is perfect for your glasses or sunglasses.

The Emmaline Bag is extremely practical, very spacious, modern and classy. A stylish handbag that’s wonderful for everyday wear. This bag turns out so beautiful and professional looking! Easily tote all of your essentials and keep your keys, phone or wallet tucked away in one of the 3 optional inside pockets.

You can be your own bag designer when makeing the Emmaline bag and customize this pattern with different fabrics, pockets and straps. Included are instructions for a magnetic closure, a zipper pocket, and a double slip pocket.

The Butterfly Sling Purse features two exterior zipper pockets, a professional looking closure strap, and a long, adjustable, cross body strap.

The Butterfly Sling Purse even has a surprise is on the inside! When you open just the closure strap only, you can access both a slip pocket and an internal zipper pocket, perfect for coins and bills. From there, you can also access both external zipper pockets that each have cards slot pockets for all of your charge cards. There is plenty of room in these other pockets for other items as well. The “Inside”: Pop the two magnetic snaps open to reveal your ID pocket. Perfect for showing your driver’s license at the post office, a bus pass, or your office ID pass.

 

Or you could choose the Quarter Note Clutch it is a surprisingly fast little bag to make up, with a very classy reward.

The Quarter Note Clutch pattern would be perfect for a bridal clutch, evening bag or a quick to make gift! The pattern uses 2 fat quarters of quilting cotton or try it with heavy satin, jacquard, linen, or your choice of fabric (note that not all of these fabrics will do well with fusible interfacing so adjust your interfacing as needed). Includes instructions for one internal slip pocket, perfect for your phone.
What might you spent your $10 store credit on? It will be hard to choose this as well!
Most of Janelle’s patterns have a hardware kit which you could purchase through her…or you could go crazy and buy ALL THE BLING!!!
If you win this prize pack, you will have some tough decisions to make – Good luck!
