QB: I'm loving the My Morning Jacket album 'Evil Urges' these days. On a holiday note, the Phil Spector Christmas album is pretty fabulous.

Crafting uniqueness since 1996 Queen Bee will be rolling in to town in a matter of hours with their great variety of adorable bags to store your stuff in.

Then, Monday roll into the office, classroom or market with a fancy new Queen Bee creation on your arm. Easy, peasy if you ask me.
UCU: What item are you most excited to be offering at UCU Winter 2010?
QB: The Edith tote is an awesome Winter bag - roomy and made out of recycled wool felt with fun applique details. I'm also excited to offer selections from my up and coming new line, Rebecca Pearcy Textiles - hand printed totes and tea towels on sustainable fabrics.
UCU: If you could sum up your work in one word, what would that be?
QB: Beautilitarian!
UCU: What are you nibbling on as the snow falls this winter?
QB: Chocolate pretzel bark, pumpkin soup, home made focaccia, mulled wine.
UCU: Favorite handmade item you have? It could be made by you, gifted to you or something you picked up.
QB: I have so many hand made items, it's hard to choose. I have a little stuffed elephant that I made a very early time in my life. I love it because it is so sweet and a reminder that I have been crafting since I was a tiny girl.

If I could have a new bag it would be this exact one. It's hard to justify because my four year old truckette has yet to show any wear or tear.
ReplyDeleteOh nom nom . . Your snacks sound delish!

ReplyDeleteThe felt bag is cool!
ReplyDeleteWhenever my eyes need to feast on something stimulating, I head over to the Queen Bee site and admire the creativity!
ReplyDeleteI love my Queen Bee!
ReplyDeleteI've bought 2 purses and a wallet over the past 4 years and they are still as great as the day I got them! They are wonderfully made and so cute. I usually Goodwill my other bags after the season, but Queen Bee purses really hold up through my heavy wear and tear. Even if I don't win, I have a feeling I'll be buying another one soon!
ReplyDeleteQueen Bee... my bad, bad habit!
ReplyDeleteI have 2 Queen Bee bags, a wallet and a hip holster! LOVE THEM!!! This new bag is SOOOOO cute. I would love to add it to the collection.
ReplyDeleteI have a 3 month old baby (my first), so my current purse is a diaper bag. Oh how I would love a REAL purse again. And I've yet to own a Queen Bee. This one is perfect. Please oh please. And thank you.
ReplyDeleteI think this is very lovely, simple, and I want one!
ReplyDeleteLove!
ReplyDeleteYou colour selections are very elegant. I hope you have a very successful weekend!

ReplyDeleteI bought my first queen bee bag to reward myself for passing a test in 2004; it still looks as great as the day I got it! Love them!
