Blue Turtle Cruising

Handmade one-of-a-kind bags and accessories crafted while cruising

Welcome to The Crafty Cruiser!

After retiring from my graphic and web design business, I realized how much I’ve enjoyed trading in my computer for my hands in all things creative. Whether knitting, crocheting or sewing, working with my hands (and not a mouse) has been a growing passion. As a self professed “bag lady”, it was only a natural progression to sewing bags. It enables me to use my artistic background to select colors and fabrics and craft beautiful, durable and functional one-of-a-kind bags. Now, sewing bags aboard a 44′ sailboat that moves constantly was certainly a challenge, but my passion prevailed and as the old saying goes, “where there’s a will, there’s a way.” I’m now very exited to take my passion on the road in our next adventure, full time RVing!

In April 2024, I opened my Etsy shop to sell my different creations. I’m continuously adding new and different products, so if there’s anything specific you’d like to see, just message me. I also take custom orders. Thanks for stopping by!
