About Me

I have always enjoyed making things. I like to just sit down and let the designs come to me. I like textiles a lot so it was a natural step to start making bags. I love all my bags from the grumpy bags to the happy bags, and the fancy pants bags. Every bag has a story whether it is a grumpy carrot or a narwhal who knows what they are doing. They are all important. It is possible that my calling in life is to cut shapes free-hand out of felt

I live in Pittsburgh with my husband and energetic dog. I also enjoy light carpentry, particularly making things that are non-load bearing.

About BBkbags:

Everyone needs something super-cute in their lives. I’m making bags for people who want something different, and who are willing to support the hand-made movement. Someone who wants something that someone put effort into, and who engaged in the creative process to make.

On the handmade movement

The products are not just about utility. Someone is buying the process that went into the product, not just that end product.
