About this Product
This fabric is so rich and vibrantly colored you might feel like you can dive right in. The outer bag is left unadorned to let the beauty of the print speak for itself—it's simply that hypnotic.
Made of 100% cotton, the bag has that soft, cozy feel—just like your favorite tee after a salty day by the sea. The structure has what we lovingly call “stand-upability”—it holds its shape without being stiff. The straps are sturdy yet soft, reinforced and quadruple-stitched to stand up to everyday adventures. But they do not stand up on their own.
Inside, the magic continues. The 100% cotton lining is printed with richly-huedfan coral design in a rainbow of sea-glass colors. You can almost see them swaying with the waves.
Thoughtful details abound: an interior zipper pocket and a divided slip pocket to hold your phone, Kindle, calendar, and pen. As a little bonus, you’ll find a coordinating pouch made from the same azure fan coral print as the lining—a splash of special just for you.
Sturdy yet featherlight, Mary’s Sea Fever weighs in at underpound! Take her to the beach, the farmer’s market, or just out and about—she’s ready for whatever tide rolls in.

Meet the Maker
My mother always told me, “a gift of the hand is a gift of the heart.”
When I’m at the sewing machine, my thoughts are for the women who will eventually use my products.
Are you a bride purchasing makeup bags for your attendants? Perhaps you’re a recent graduate just starting a career and needing a colorful pouch to tuck into your purse or briefcase. Or maybe you’re a teenager who wants something cute to carry your air-pods and some cash.
Whoever you are, I imagine sewing for you and imbue what I make with love and hope for your pleasure.
My items are truly handmade. I limit the number of projects that I sew at a time, and I don’t keep an inventory of fabric, so each design comes in limited quantities.
From my hand and heart to yours….
How it’s Made
Each and every one of my bags, pouches, and totes is a labor of love.
I use 100% cotton for the outer fabric, the lining, and the woven interfacing. I choose fabrics that speak to me—whether whimsical, vibrant, or just uniquely charming. They're never selected at random.
A lot of time goes into planning the perfect lining—whether it blends harmoniously with the outer fabric or creates a bold, contrasting pop of color.
Even zippers must attend an audition! I love taking apart two zippers and combining them into a two-toned zipper, often with a third color for the zipper pull. This extra bit of effort creates a one-of-a-kind piece. I hope it makes you smile every time
