Hi...Glad you stopped by...
- I was born and raised in the west and have lived here most of my life. I have lived in Colorado, Montana, Idaho, Utah and Arizona. I did live in the Chicago area for 7 years and it made me realize many things, one of which is, there's no place like home, Idaho to be exact. I love the west, the beautiful mountain ranges, the wide open spaces and the abundance of evergreen forests.
I have always been a crafty person. I started crocheting at about 12 and have been sewing for 30+ years. I don't really like to sew clothes, but love to sew craft and home decorating items (curtains, pillows, pillowcases, quillows, cloth storybooks, etc.). I have owned two businesses before this one. One was a computer store and the other was a craft business. I would take my items to various craft shows and the quillows (its a quilt that folds up into a pillow) always sold very well as did my other items.
I started playing bingo a few years ago and didn't have a bingo bag. I noticed all the different bags that people had at the bingo hall and was looking to buy one. I looked around online, but didn't like what was available. Then I thought, heck, I bet I could make one. I wanted it to be very durable and last a long time, that's when I decided to use a heavyweight canvas fabric for the bag. I designed the bingo bag myself and I get compliments on mine all the time. That made me think, and the light bulb came on, and I decided to make them for others.
I enjoy sewing and working with fabric, and almost consider myself a fabric-a-holic. You know, I'm like a kid in a candy store when I get around fabric. There's so much pride and accomplishment when you can take just a piece of fabric and create something useful and attractive out of it.
I have also discovered thru the years that I am a perfectionist. This is a double edged sword for me. The positive side of it is that I strive to make a superior quality product that I am proud of. Like my ads say, I wouldn't sell anything I wouldn't be proud to use myself. The negative of being a perfectionist is that I like things to be perfect and that's just about impossible in this world. I have to realize I am human, and most definitely, not perfect. I still reach for it everyday, however :)
Please take a look around my store, kick off your shoes and stay awhile. If you don't see anything that you like, I do many custom orders. Just send me an e-mail with your idea and I'll do my best to create your custom order. I am always creating more bags with new designs, so save me as a favorite and come back by often.
Thank you for letting me share a little about me with you,
Have A Great Day!,

About My Bingo Bags
While you are searching for a bingo bag,
it's true some are less expensive but also inferior in quality.
As the old saying goes - you get what you pay for :)
Please notice how the bags are made.
Some don't even have pleated dauber pockets.
Also note how many pockets the bag has.
These have 10 pleated pockets on the outside so they
don't use up space from the main bag.
They also hold 10 daubers, no small pockets that are just for pens.
What is the bag fabric made of?
These bags are made of heavyweight durable canvas fabric
and will last for a very long time.
Heck, some don't even show you the top of the bag, and I'm left to wonder why?
I'm very proud of every bag I make and let you see what it looks like in the picture.
The cord closure is very important also.
Does it have one or two drawstring cords?
What is the cord made of? Does it have beads on the cord ends?
These bags have double drawstring cords
made of sturdy black nylon that's very strong and durable.
How is the bottom constructed?
The bottom of these bags are made out of two layers of canvas (no print fabric here)
sandwiched together with two added layers of sturdy craft bond.
This makes the bag so strong and durable, there is no need for a cardboard insert.
- These bags are made using a sewing machine and all raw edges
- are finished with satin stitching.
- No serger stitching is used on these bags, which makes them look so much nicer
- than seeing serger stitching, in my humble opinion.
-
-
- If you are looking for a high quality bingo bag
- that will last for a very long time and
- be one you will be proud to own,
- then look no further.
- Now you just have to decide on which print you like the most.
