I now own two Japanese craft books! I feel so behind compared to some people, but I love my two books. The latest one I got is all about bags, and I scored it when Alexia was selling off some of her stash.



There are so many great ideas in this book, including a new way to construct a basic tote that I'll have to try. Here are just some of my favorites:











In addition to the book, Alexia sent on some wonderful fabric. Baxter wanted in on the photo shoot!



Thanks, Alexia! I can't wait to get started.
