What is Favorite Bags By Rita™?
This is not an easy question to answer. I started sewing four (4) years ago as a stress reliever from a job that involved a lot of travel and time away from home. I was a few years away from retirement and looking for a hobby.
So, I started taking sewing lessons. Every Friday afternoon I picked up my small sewing machine and off I went for private lessons. I started off making pillows, small pouches and simple back packs for my friends and family.
Then COVID hit and travel for work came to a stop .There I was at home with my cats, socializing on Zoom calls, and looking for other ways to occupy my time. That started the focus on my new hobby. However, I knew I needed to improve my skills…
Hi! I’m Rita
…I started following different bag pattern designers, watching tutorials on You Tube, and experimenting with fabrics. I created basic designs, embellishments, combinations of fabrics and bags that made me smile. I began sending bags to my sister. She was, and continues to be, my quality control by offering suggestions on how to improve the designs. After a while, she said “Stop sending me bags! I have enough. If you want to continue you need to start selling them.”
So here I am…setting up an online business to sell my (hobby) bags. I focus on TOTE bags, CLUTCH bags, CROSS BODY bags, WRISTLET bags and anything else that strikes my fancy. I prefer to focus on a few specific styles and mixing and matching different fabrics. My bags are handcrafted and unique unto themselves with ever changing fabrics and designs.
WELCOME to my website…where the choices are limited only by my imagination and your appreciation of owning one of my favorite bags.
