“Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.” - Confucious

Cape Cod Clutches was established in late 2013 and has been going strong ever since. All the items are handmade in Sandwich, MA. I've always loved bags. Handbags, tote bags, wristlets, and wallets, my closet is full of them. They are all displayed nicely in my closet and it makes me happy to see them each time I open the door. 

When it was time to give gifts to my twin boys teachers, I was trying to think of something unique that they hadn't received 1000 times before. So, I decided to make them quilted bags. What lady couldn't use those? I had plenty of fabric leftover from a quilt I had recently made. From that night on, I was hooked. I love to choose nautical fabrics that remind me of the gorgeous landscape that surrounds us here on Cape Cod. A Facebook page, Etsy Shop, and a magazine article later, here we are. You can also find Cape Cod Clutches in several retail stores on the Cape.

 So, I'm a pretty busy girl these days. I spend most of my time sewing. I enjoy almost every minute of it. I do occasionally have to take a break from the repetition and let some creativity out. My most recent "creative" project was this fabric bowl seen below. I adore the bright colors. It is proudly displayed in my beach themed living room.
