Sue Roesner said she just HAD to create a Sling Along just like our cover model and that's just fine by us! She said she feels like she's performing a magic trick as the various parts of this bag come together for her! GREAT job Sue!
|

 Cheryl Suitt modified our Sling Along design a bit so that her son could use it as a carrier for his frisbee golf discs! She also added a caribiner at one of the bottom D-rings to attach a cleaning rag. |

This is Fran Bott's 2nd Sling Along and I'm pretty much in love with it! Pretty impressive hardware too, don't you think? |
|
 Cheryl Suitt also used fabric from the "Cat-i-tudes" fabric collection to create these Packlets for a recent vacation. They match her luggage! |
|
|
Sue Hobert created
"purrfect" Sling Along for her DIL's Christmas gift! She used the newest addition to the "Cat-i-tudes" fabric collection which I LOVE! |
|
Don Distler said that this Sling Along goes to Dr Kevin Smith, an avid Harley rider and director of the Baptist State Convention of Maryland & Delaware.

Here's Gayla Martell's latest creation and she did a fantabulous job on her Triple Play! Thanks so much for these pictures Gayla! |
|

NEW at StudioKat Designs!- |
|
Introducing>>>>
We're really excited about this new zipper! It's silver on silver with a totally unique star-shaped zipper pull! They're available NOW on our website in the following sizes;
10" closed bottom
20" closed bottom
22" purse style
(closed on both ends w/2 zipper heads)
Since silver is without a doubt the most popular hardware color that we sell, I think it makes sense to add another zipper option for you to use along with it!
If you agree and you'd like to pick up a few to use with you next project, just click HERE!

I don't know about you but I've been watching soap operas ALL MY LIFE! I learned to like them as a small child from my MOM who had a whole string of 'em she'd watch everyday while she worked! My favorite soap of all time is "The Young & Restless", but here's something I recently watched that was eye-opening because did you know that there are important "life lessons" to be learned by watching soap operas? If not, just click the image at left or HERE to find out MORE!  |
