Welcome to Sweet Cherries!

Welcome to my blog dedicated to my sewing hobby, Sweet Cherries, and now some added recipes and goodies based on our family life & interests. This blog is an easy way for me to share... I love to sew for family, friends and home - it is my creative therapy. :) As I started sewing products, friends suggested I start selling my Hand Sewn Goodies. And so here is Sweet Cherries...

I sew Market/Tote Bags, Oil Cloth Bags, Cosmetic Bags, Kitchen Towels & Aprons, Home Decor… and special projects by request. There are also many great gift ideas on my blog!

NEW! My Etsy Shop: www.etsy.com/shop/SweetCherriesGoodies. You can purchase any items posted on Etsy directly through my shop. Go to www.Etsy.com/shop/SweetCherriesGoodies to make a purchase through Etsy.

Otherwise, TO PLACE AN ORDER FOR A SWEET CHERRIES PRODUCT: Please send me an e-mail to carriegraham5@sbcglobal.net or message on Facebook. I sell almost everything that I post - and I am happy to custom make any item that you see in a different fabric or color combination.

Welcome to Sweet Cherries!

Fondly,
Carrie

Oil Cloth Zipper Bags


A friend asked if I could make an oil cloth bag with a zipper...  so I did!  These are great for cosmetics, sunscreen or anything that could possibly get wet.  Just wipe clean.  I also included an optional handle on this one and it has a small interior pocket.  (Zipper size is 14 inches long.) The oil cloth zipper bags are $25.

Life wins over sewing. Been a little busy....

The JDRF Walk is done for 2011 - and now I'm back to reality, life and sewing!  We had such a wonderful day thanks to all the support of family and friends.  The kids had a blast...  I love this picture of Colleen and her hot cocoa.
