Welcome to Bag-A-Holic. This is a Bag-Along. All the patterns for the purses will be free to list members for a period of one month. You will use your own materials to construct the Purses. The plan is that there will be a new Purse Pattern every month. The first pattern was designed by Debbie Barisa, the one who came up with the idea for this group .. THANK YOU Debbie .. :)

Our intent for this list was to be a warm, friendly place for newbie and/or "wannabe" designers to "test the waters" with their first designs. (In order to keep the list warm and friendly, certain topics, like copyright issues, will NOT be discussed. Please do a "google search" for info in such topics!) Also, to maintain a warm, friendly list, each member is expected to "play nice." No flames or impolite messages will be tolerated. If you have a problem or concern, you are expected to contact the listmom @ bag-a-holic-owner@yahoogroups.com PRIVATELY and not post the concern to the list.

Please note - application to this group indicates that you agree that you will not share the patterns with others. They are the property of the designers and are for listmembers' PERSONAL use only. Knitting these patterns for commercial uses, mass production, publishing or reprinting of this pattern constitutes copyright infringement. Please don't abuse the generosity of those of us who freely share our skills.

If you are going to be away for a while, please use the "special notices" function rather than "no mail." "No mail" will be changed to "special notices."
