Description
A stunning handmade quilted bag trio featuring a crossbody belt bag, a quilted cosmetic/toiletry bag, and a zippered pouch for all your essentials!
Each piece is handmade by local artisan Melissa Smith. Melissa is a passionate quilter and bag maker who finds joy in turning fabric into something both beautiful and functional. Growing up, she never described herself as artistic – pencils, paint and drawing weren’t her thing! But she just hadn’t found the right medium – FABRIC (and lots of it!). Melissa’s quilting journey began in 2019, spending her quarantined COVID days at home churning out projects. She was then bit by the “bag bug” and developed a newfound use for her fabric collection. Whether stitching up a cozy quilt or crafting a perfectly practical tote, Melissa pours heart and creativity into every project — one stitch at a time.
