What great fabrics!
I think my favorite items in the store are the items made with the forest friends fabric.
Blue Wildflowers — Large Zipper Pouch!
I loved seeing all the fabric on her blog!
Hmmm I LOVE LOVE LOVE “The memories” zipper clutch..I'm a sucker for blue and pink ..(:
Also…I've been reading her blog..definitely love the new baby packages she blogged about. What a cute idea, I may order one since my sister just had a new baby girl!
I love the forest friends and the bambi and mushroom friends coin purses!
I visited Downtown Girls blog and immediately loved her Saturday Market post. I wish we had markets like that where I live. Loved the blog, following it now!
I love the happy baby elephants wallet, or the wild garden, or the pink ducks.. So many so cute!!!
I love that she includes lots of links to other blogs within her blog entries. I jumped over there and spent 45 minutes looking at her site and following links!
Thanks for giving me a new blog to follow 🙂
Wow,I could use these….my purse is like the burmuda triangle….things go in but never come out. 🙂 Not only that,my purse literally weighs 10 pounds b/c I'm too lazy to go through all the stuff. 🙂 Anyways,I LOVE the dancing bambi medium pouch….I'm a sucker for anything with cute deers…I love the Deery Lou character. I would love to have something so fun in my purse like Downtown Girl's pouches/coin purses,it would make going into my purse much more fun. 🙂
As for her blog,the first thing I noticed that I like is that she put cakies blog first on her list of lovely blogs….indeed the best blogs should go first. 🙂 Second, I love the baby gift sets she made…I love handmade burp cloths…when I do have another baby,I am so buying everything handmade. 🙂 I don't have a facebook or twitter account, so I wish I could earn more entries in another way.But hopefully that doesn't matter & I win anyways….I'd love to share the set with my girls,too. 🙂
oh how cute!
I love the Dancing Bambi one!
I visited her blog!
She had a daughter on Jan 19th…and my sons birthday is on Jan 20th!!! We were pregnant during the same seasons….although they are about 10 years apart in age!!! 😉 fun!
Blogged here!

Love her “wallflowers” clutch. Also checked out her blog and love her daughter's name, Audrey — a classic!
so many beautiful designs. The 'dancing bambi' purse is just soooo cute though. Would be great for my 3 year old girl!
checked out the blog – congratulations on the arrival of a baby girl. I also recently just had a girl too so can relate to the sentiments about wanting to treasure these moments when they are so small.
How cute are those little purses?!!! If I had to pick one…I would pick The Burnt Sky–zipper clutch. I am really digging on gray and orange right now. I would love to have one in each of my bags and for all my different trinkets.
i like so many wow… but i think right now i like the winter bird coin purse. so darling.
merideth a.
I stopped by downtown girl design blog and thought the post on her baby girl was really sweet. I think a lot of mom's can relate to the instant love and not wanting them to grow up.
Love the Little Piggie and Friends Coin Purse- just so adorable and whimsical.
Oops! Forgot to mention about her blog- I like the Saturday market entry and the first photo of the quilt. And, I like that little piggie and friends coin purse =)
i really like her zipper clutches; they'd be great to throw into a diaper bag to keep my stuff separate from the baby's! the pink chrysanthemum pattern is pretty.
I love the Blue Lake Zipper Clutch! I want!
i love all of the elephant prints! too cute!
crazymaizy@ gmail dot com
*panic panic* can't choose favourite, I love them all way way too much!!!! Erm, perhaps the donkey and friends coin purse? Or the owls… Or elephants? Oh I cannot choose! Too too lovely!

Checked out her blog… loved the pics of the little baby shoes- as I am about to have a little girl this week! 🙂

I love the Downtown Girl Designs stuff – great fabrics and it looks like excellent craftsmanship! Plus I'm a major sucker for purses/pouches/clutches/secret hideaways of any kind! I love the coin purse in the quirky owl print. I have a 5 month old little boy and when I was about two months pregnant I found this material in light blue and bought it to make curtains for my baby room. So it has a special place in my heart 🙂 You can check out how my curtains turned out here!!

And I love her blog! So sweet. I love her pics of an ideal craft room – we can dream can't we!
What a fun collection of fabrics! I think “Up & Up” is my favorite.
I love the Green Pond zipper clutch. It reminds me of spring. As I sit in my office and watch the snow fall, spring seems so far away!
I love her blog post about her new daughter, Audrey. I'm due with a little girl in July and her words make me more and more excited.
I love the pink poppies and the blue wildflower!
I love Downtown Girl Design's simple blog design. Just lovely.

I loved the “stay little” post..I think I can relate, because I know we are done with babies 🙂
But, now that Jack is turning 7 (what???!)…I can appreciate the growing up phase too!
Wow, they're all adorable! I love the tissue pouches and coin purses.
Aww, I love the “All the pretty things…” post on her blog.
I just looove the “
The Folklore Story — Zipper Clutch”… Aren't those the cutest little mushrooms? And the print is so sober, but still so pretty.
And being a fan of decoration, the post “All the pretty things” surely got my eyes… I'm thinking of getting one of those little flags rope myself!
the blue wildflowers are so pretty!
i love her blog post.. please stay little. i can totally relate. i don't know where time has flown… but my little babies are now little girls.
i love her “its a tea party coin purse!”
The little Forest Friends purse is so sweet, but only just 1% sweeter than every single other purse there!
This post http://downtowngirldesigns.blogspot.com/2010/03/please-stay-little.html about Lita's new baby girl… ohhhh.
I love the Russian Babushka large pouch! I think I'm partial to it, because we're in the process of adopting from the Ukraine!
what I loved about the blog, was the post on the Saturday market… what great photos! I especially love the one with the art, of the dog and scrabble tiles that says, “BITE ME”. haha it makes me laugh!
All the fabrics are so cute, it's hard to choose! I loved the little sheeps farm coin purse in lime 🙂
