GIVEAWAY- Michele from BY YOUR SIDE on ETSY

Life has been a little crazy lately, but here is my next AWESOME giveaway! This is from my fellow Etsian and Oregonian Michele from By Your Side. She has an adorable shop on Etsy. You have to go check out all the fun things she has in her shop! She has been generous enough to give away one of her "Itty Bitty Brittany travel bags. They are soooo cute. Check out the pictures above.

Here is some information about Michele to get to know here better and how she began her journey to Etsy:

Hello! My name is Michele, I am the owner/designer and slave to the needle (both sewing and knitting), behind By Your Side. I live in “The City of Roses,” Portland, Oregon with my husband and two lovely daughters.

By Your Side was born, four years ago, when I couldn’t find that “perfect” purse. I thought to myself, “Michele, you know what you want, just make it!“ Through trial and error (a lot of error), I began designing purses to fit my needs. Then a funny thing happened, after carrying my own creations around town and answering many questions about them, it finally dawned on me that not everyone else sews or knits and they wanted to buy my purses! Thus, the birth of By Your Side!

I must confess, I am a “fabriholic,” and my yarn habit is just as bad! All of my creations are handcrafted from high quality fabric and yarns, with attention to detail and functionality. By Your Side’s purses and handbags are interfaced with Pellon for body and strength, and stress points are double or even triple stitched!

I have sold my purses for the last two years at The Gresham Farmer’s Market and at several local bazaars during the holiday season.
