About Christine

Don't you just LOVE handbags? I know I do! Therefore I am TOTALLY addicted to designing bags and wallets. In addition to providing you with designer sewing patterns and video courses I will teach you skills that will enable you to make professional quality accessories.

Imagine being able to make all sorts of bags, handbags, wallets and purses that are unique to YOU and exactly the style, colour, size and shape that YOU want them to be?

My range of designer bag and wallet patterns will help you to do just that! Above all, nobody will believe you made the bags, purses and wallets yourself!

What They're Saying

Daryl Perry

When I first saw this bag's flap, I knew I wanted to sew decorative stitches on it. I was so pleased with how it turned out and it sold right away! Then I got a request to make another one in purples for the same woman who bought the first Fiona from me, and I stitched decorative stitches on the second Fiona too. I love the shape, size and features of this bag. It's such a stylish looking bag. With Christine's thorough directions, you can't go wrong!

Really enjoyed making this bag. Easy to follow instructions. & if I had a problem just followed the pics on the computer Piece of cake. I have made 3 of these bags 2 for myself & one for a gf. Now I just found Sugar & Spice pattern. Again lots of pockets inside & out. Love your patterns.

I chose to make the Half Moon as a good size for a quick trip, and am blown away by how professional it looks! As always Christine's instructions leave nothing to chance and I had no trouble understanding them. I think I may have to go back and make the Quarter Moon too now!

Every interpretation of this bag that I have made has elicited a rave response. It is a smart looking, well-sized, useful bag and can take on any number of personalities depending upon fabric choices. The construction is genius and directions very clear. Just go step by step to a great outcome.

I love this pattern and it goes together very quickly. It taught me the value of paying attention to the test print squares. but seriously one of the best patterns that I have worked with. I like the detailed picture portion for the first time sewing the pattern together and the fact that you can print only text at the end for a quick reference. The labels are handy if you are doing multiple bags at the same time.  I get many complements on this bag.

To be honest I cut this pattern out and looked at all the pieces and thought no way. Then Chris came out with her video and I thought, I so can do this. Video + pattern are a steal. Christine's video kept me laughing while making this wonderful wallet/side bag/clutch. The construction is sheer genius. Bravo!
