I am super excited about my latest creation! A large day bag with two inside pockets and a fabulous tulip inspired pattern!
This bag was my first time using Buckram and fusible fleece, which I thought would be extremely hard to work with, but I have discovered the wonders of it, and how beautiful it works in giving a bag shape and structure. I definitely will be making more of these in a variety of sizes!

I have already begun work on my next exciting adventure of creating 1952 Vogue inspired aprons! Can't wait to share!

Welcome

Hi Everyone

Welcome to Little Zippies!!! I am super excited to introduce my creations to you. I first came up with the idea after graduating from university and having no job lined up that I decided to create Little Zippies, and sell then at my very first craft show. Since I have started creating them they have become a hit with both the young and old. Whether it is a small Little Zippie which could be used in your purse to hold cosmetics, business cards, or any little items that seem to get lost in our purses, if you know what I mean. Eventually, I decided to start creating small clutch purse that simple fit on the wrist to hold all those little things you need when you are just running out to the store, or over to a friends. I also create casual bags which can be used as purses, a stylish diaper bag, or a day bag to carry with you all that you need, or for a simple day at the beach.

I know they have become a treasure in both Ohio and Michigan. Each bag is unique to itself, maybe you will discover one that fits your little hearts desire.
