Yes, it’s true.
Watch for my new design blog project called BAG’nTELLE.
It is about expert ideas and tutorials about fashion accessory design, bag design, construction techniques, do-it-yourself approaches, and more from designer and educator Don Morin (aka Weekend Designer).
I am hoping that you’ll come back and check it out.

December 10, 2009 at 4:29 pm
Your blog is excellent, the detail and time you have put into the designs you picked to tutorial for us is fabulous. I have found so many things on here that could use up so much of my fabric stash. Also your directions make clear to me so many things about pattern drafting that had previously mistified me.
To find that you are going to be starting a new blog with a focus on accessories is awesome! So excited, hope to see it soon :D
December 13, 2009 at 2:23 pm
When can we have the pleasure to read and to sew; please tell us thank you
December 13, 2009 at 5:43 pm

Found your blog on Ask and was so glad i did. That was a excellent read. I have a quick question.Is it OK if i send you an email???…
February 5, 2010 at 3:52 am
I’m so glad to hear that you are still going to blog. I only just now discovered you–3 months after you finished Weekend Designer… Sadly that is very characteristic of me… What a discovery! But how my heart sank at the news that you were ending your blog. And now I can relax…because you’re back! (Even though I never even knew you were gone in the first place!) You have so much information, and it is so kind of you to share it with others. Your articles give me confidence to do the impossible! Thanks so much!
-A new friend
February 22, 2010 at 11:29 am
Happy to hear you have a new blog. I loved this one. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge with us.
A sewing lover
