Free Pattern - Hanging Doorknob Bag


I have a number of patterns that I have designed over time that I am going to share with you
This is my Hanging Doorknob Bag Pattern.
These a a cute little size that can be made to hang from the Christmas tree or  doorknob

I would like to have made a linen and red one for this post but I have been too busy.
Ill try and get some pressies made this week and put them up for you to see some variations.

Why do I give away my patterns?

I used to make and create gift lines for a couple of shops.
One of these shops the owner would give me an idea of what she was wanting and I would
go away and create it for her.
I began to gain confidence in designing. Hence where my Christmas Pudding pattern, Twirly Cupcake and others have come from. This is something I really enjoyed. Unfortunatley she sold her business and that part of my business stopped.

I also used to teach embroidery classes for a number of years. A couple of classes a week. This had to stop due to me becoming unwell.

I also used to make and create my own line of baby clothes with embroidery on them. This started to get too too demanding. I was needing to get sewers and embroiders so I stopped that too. I was finding the demand of sewing and embroidering it all myself too much.

I went on to have two more children.. which made it six little blessings. SMILE SMILE
So my creating went onto the back burner of life for quite some time.

I then started to write up my own patterns and sold a few but then decided I just wanted to give them away for free... selling, tax etc was a slight hassle so...
there is the story.

Now..

My inspiration comes when I make a gift for a family member or a friend.

So I want to give you something for nothing and if you enjoy well Im very happy about that.

Just please respect the fact that they are my designs and give me the credit when it is due.. thats all I ask.
SMILE SMILE.

Have a great day
