Here I am showcasing the Jackie Clark Designs Market-2-Market Tote Bag, Junk Bag and Backpack. I suggest bag linings, discuss fabric options and provide inspiration for both the beginner and advanced sewer. To download these patterns and sew your own, visit the Downloads for Purchase section here on my site.

It’s always fun to see how others were inspired by my patterns and made creations of their own. Here are two blogs that I enjoyed reading and think you will, too.

This Oregon blog named Probably Actually used my Britches & Bloomers pattern to create a pair of pants for a newborn boy.

Over at Fran’s Threads, a unique striped jacket was made using my Cute as a Button Baby Jacket pattern, which can be downloaded from this website for $8.

I love to see the projects that you’re working on. Share them with me on the Jackie Clark Designs Facebook page. See you there and happy sewing!

Sew happy to be using video to add sewing tutorials to my website.

The Jackie Clark Backpack pattern is now available as a downloadable PDF for those who would like to purchase and print it on their own. Simply click on the cover below to be redirected to my Shop, where you can buy the pattern for $8.

At Spring 2010 market, I featured my Ruched Baby Quilt as the bakground for a free applique owl pattern.

I received such a wonderful response, I have put the quilt and applique pattern together as an E-Pattern.

If you would like to purchase this pattern, visit The Quilt Pattern Shoppe -Patterns!

The Owl Family free pattern is available on the website.

I have had these shoes running around in my mind for the longest time!  Finally, Angie helped me make a darling pattern so I could applique them onto a quilt. 

Watch for a free download pattern on the website!  I love this argyle fabric on the shoes! 

I wish I could make a pair to wear!
