Vanette and Katie's Bag








Maybe you could call me the purse police! I am always on the look out for a new idea. The idea for this bag came as I walked down the street with Katie. She hadn't been here more than an hour or two but I had my eye on her bag. She mentioned that it was a gift from her sister on her recent trip to Africa - perfect! As soon as I could I was asking her if I could "borrow" her bag so I could use it for a pattern.
She was happy to help and put all of her stuff in a plastic bag so I could use it for a few days. Our program has come full circle! Katie's sister helped a woman in Africa, now Katie was helping another woman in Haiti! Her name is Vanette. Vanette came to us while she was pregnant with her youngest baby, Michael. She graduated from literacy school and sewing school! She is amazing! She is working to support her family making "Katie Bags". I am really proud of her for how hard she has worked to make her life better.

This is the second style of bags that we will have available for you to purchase to help support Vanette and her family!
