TNNA Review - Offhand Designs

I met Larisa, owner and "Idea Hamster" of Offhand Designs at TNNA in Ohio. She was at TNNA in Long Beach and this time I got to spend more time with her and see some of her new creations. Larissa herself is incredibly nice. She is also quirky and fun...and so are her great handbags. She creates her bags out of vintage brocades & velvets, preferring to use those materials as a high-quality alternative to leather.

Offhand Designs has some great knitting bags and needle clutches.

But I must admit what I'm really in love with are the Satellites, especially Tia in Goldenrod Stripe & Nina in Rose. She also has a great Sophia handbag that would be perfect for a bride. I only wish I had seen it before I got married!

Larissa, as Off Hand Designs, is going to be at Stitches West next week. If you're going you should check out her booth.
