Purselette – Purselette – What’s a Purselette?

Purselettes are cute little bags that you can carry by hand, by wrist, or by belt loop. Yes, beltloop – the handles are long enough to fit between two belt loops allowing you to go hands-free.  Great for walking, shopping or riding on your Harley!

Most purselettes measure about 6″ wide by 8″ long, big enough to fit your cell phone or other small electronic gadgets.  They’re also padded to protect those technologies you carry.

Each purselette has a zipper top and zipper front pocket.

Purselettes are $25, come in a variety of prints, or you can supply your own fabric for a custom purselette.

Silk Scarves!

The silk scarves pictured here were made by students in the silk scarf class.  None of these students had made a silk scarf with Sharpies or alcohol ink prior to class.

Contemporary Fiber Artists Collective

Funky Dori and Funky Erin are in Hot Shops Studio 314 with the Contemporary Fiber Arts Collective!

The collective is a group of 4 artists who work with fiber, plus we have a friend in Studio 304, Susan, who is a felter – she makes really cool items – I can’t wait to collaborate on some jewelry with her!

Jean B. Mills and Jean Munhall Sitzman both work on contemporary pieces.

Funky Erin still makes Funky Puppies, and now introduced Funky Chinchillas and Funky Hedgies.

Funky Dori is working on purses, purselettes and jewelry.

We’re very excited to announce that moving into Studio 314 allows us to teach classes!  A class schedule will be coming out soon for the fall – and Girl Scout leaders can schedule their own Troop classes too.

Funky Dori and Funky Erin will be offering Open Studio – this will be a time you can drop in to work on projects or look for inspiration and assistance.  We have 4 machines available to use during this time as well as many other sewing accessories (scissors, cutting tools…).  Open Studio is $5/hr, payable at the end of your session.

E-mail Funky Dori or call (402) 660-2329 to find out more about our classes and open studio.
