By Land, Air or Sea--Steampunk Inspired Transportation Blog Hop








May is National Transportation Month and what better way to celebrate than with a Steampunk themed blog hop?!

 Our loverly hostess for this hop is Ms. Leslie Rahye....all the links are at the end of the post. Join me, won't you?






My inspiration fabric
Sewn on a 1941 Featherweight.......almost as old as the age Steampunk represents, right?
Transporting groceries, steampunk style!



I made this bag for a friend who loves him some bike riding and hates using his wife's girly grocery bags. lol

Enjoy the hop!!!  I know I will!!

    what a cool idea! and I really like the fabric - did you just "happen upon it" or go shopping specifically for it? I'm sure your friend will be quite the dapper steampunk shopping gentleman with his new grocery carry all! Thanks for sharing!

    What a great idea for a gentleman, a "manly" shopping bag. I really like this idea and your tote is fabulous. I learned how to sew on a Singer just like that. Brings back a lot of memories. TFS.

    Regena, you sure "bagged" the transportation theme on this hop! I love the grocery bag you crafted for the gentleman who will be very happy to cart his goodies in that bag! Thank you so much for the time and effort you shared with us blog hoppers! This new visitor/follower is happy to join your fan club!
