The Splash Tote will be your favorite bag for all your aquatic adventures! Plenty of pocket options, massive storage for towels and a change of clothes, plus a durable waterproof interior and exterior to keep everything dry. Made from Ottertex acrylic canvas, this big and beautiful tote is also a relatively easy project to sew. Pattern to come in early 2026 at www.nautipupdesigns.com!

The new Classy Clutch crossbody pattern is getting ready for launch. Perfectly portable, it features 3 foldover flap designs, multiple strap types, zippered and slip pockets, plus magnetic snap or turn-lock closure options. Measuring 10”W x 6.5”h x 2.75”D, this versatile bag goes from day to night with ease. I wore it at a wedding and took it on recent travels so I can vouch that it passed the go-everywhere test!

Miss Bertie found the versatile Wave Bag to also come in handy as a comfy travel pillow 😏

‘Similar to the way waves maintain a natural rhythm and balance, they can also symbolize the importance of finding equilibrium and harmony in our lives. Waves remind us of the need to navigate the ups and downs, highs and lows, and find a sense of balance amidst chaos. They can be a reminder to seek a state of inner peace and harmony with the world around us.”

My new Waves Bucket Bag was designed and sewn during the past week. I hope that anyone who likes it can also identify with my recent feelings about the challenges of life. Engaging with inspired creative projects always saves my sanity ♥️

I discovered this free pattern from Swoon for a reversible hobo bag and couldn’t wait to make it from batik fabrics. Already thinking of upgrades for future versions!

Just shipped the Crabby Carryall tote to a gal in Maryland 🦀 Her son-in-law (one of Jordan’s friends) commissioned me to make it for her. It’s the ideal bag for travels, beach/pool/boat outings, or shopping. My bag design is sewn with custom printed recycled canvas, 3 slip pockets, large zippered pocket, embroidered handles and detachable/adjustable shoulder strap. More to come soon!!

Designed this storage bag for The Marley to keep clutter out of sight! I truly winged it when figuring out how to make it fit in our V-berths. The next versions will be 1” shorter, but this one is perfect for all the dog toys, ear treatment stuff, and food. This teal marine canvas from Ottertex is the best!!
