New by Aunties Two

Posted on February 10, 2021 by Penny Haren

I love everything by Aunties Two. She is one of those designers whose patterns are instantly recognizable. These are her new releases:

Make all or one – these oval baskets will add a touch of charm to any room!

These boxes also come in three sizes.

As well as these covered round crates…

Pressed Felt from Bosal would work beautifully in any of these patterns and is now available in pre-packaged yardage.

The wool felt is in stock now. The patterns are arriving the middle of next month.

This newest release by Aunties Two is named after the highest mountain in Main.

The bag is 11 inches tall; 12 inches wide; and 6 inches deep – a perfect size for a travel tote! Make the bag with 28 – 2 1/2″ fabric strips and a yard of fabric for the lining and pockets.

For those – like me – who can’t make just one, the metal stays are available separately as well.

The wide zippers are available in nineteen colors.

Batting strips make the body of the bag.

Katahdin 100% Cotton Summer 3oz 2-1/2in x 25yds

The base and handles are created with In-R-Form.

In-R-Form Plus Double Sided Fusible Foam Stabilizer 18in x 58in

Everything will be in stock next month!

Panels and Purses

Posted on August 25, 2019 by Penny Haren

The new patterns that will be showcased at Market are starting to arrive – and these two are sure to be hits. After all, they are from Aunties Two!

Happy Hauler is a BIG bag that goes together very quickly because the fabric is center stage! What a unique use of a panel – and what great results!

Cork Totes features either an open or zippered top and cork accents that elevates this to a boutique exclusive. Simply stunning!

Both patterns will be available next month.

Mary Poppins Playmates

Posted on September 17, 2018 by Penny Haren

The new Little Poppins bag is due to arrive next month. It is doubly cute because you can make it in two sizes: 13 x 9 x 6 or 13 x 12 x 6. Who doesn’t love the proportions and style with a classic touch? The pattern includes high quality stays. (Additional stays can be purchased separately).

Achieve professional quality by using a great stabilizer for the sides and bottom.

Now, don’t you want a set of all three???

Tis the Season for Trees

Tis the season for evergreens – and this is reflected in our top 100 patterns! All of these trees made the list!

Crazy Christmas Trees from Cut Loose Press™ is the perfect family craft project! None of the seams have to match so seam allowances aren’t really an issue. I’m making this with my grandchildren this weekend!
