More “everything else” and a giveaway!

January 22, 2015 by Marsha Lawrence

Nulagh also mentioned one of her tips to a “professional looking bag” is to use Shape flex, also one of my favourites. I use Pellon Shape Flex 101 in nearly every bag I make. Stitch in the Ditch offers it in many different quantites, from yard to bolt! In addition to Shape-flex, they also carry a vast selection of interfacing and fleece.
On my last post, I introduced my “Everything Else” series, and this post is the next instalment and there’s a giveaway! 

Nulagh at Stitch in the Ditch offers so many bag making supplies in the online Canadian shop. Remember when viewing the site, prices are listed in Canadian currency! I asked her if she had some favourite supplies and she listed a few great ones. I’d love to try this Zippers by the Yard kit, to make my own zippers any length I want. The site offers many options, but this By Annie one with the multi-coloured pulls looks like a must-have.

Some other goodies pointed out were the covered buttons, for adding a unique touch to bags, webbing for handles, and leather handles. 

I’m very excited to see so many essential supplies from one shop. Check out the hardware section too! So many options in many different finishes.  

Now for the giveaway: Nulagh has generously offered up a $25 gift certificate for me to give away! All you have to do to enter is leave a comment on this post, telling me what you’d spend your $25 on from Stitch in the Ditch. Contest closes at 11:59 pm PST on January 28, 2015. 
Bonus entries for following me on 
Instagram or Pinterest 
Just be sure to leave separate comments letting me know you’ve done so for the entries to count.
