LindaRauldHeadShot.jpg As far back as she can remember, Linda says she has always loved any type of needlecraft. She began like many others; first with doll dresses, then her own clothes, and later on, her children's clothing while always interspersing with embroidery, knitting, quilting, and crocheting. The application of thread to fabric has always been like magic to Linda. Sewing has been her lifelong passion!

Fresh out of school, she worked for several years as a drafter and, in due time, as a mechanical designer. With her background in sewing, the transition was easy. After all, blueprints are "patterns" and mechanical design is just another form of "construction." Eventually, wanting to work for herself, she came upon the idea to combine her passion for sewing with her professional experience and Purse-O-Nalities of Palm Harbor was born.

Linda has chosen to add a little more interest to her designs than the typical "sack-type" bag.

All Purse-O-Nalities of Palm Harbor patterns are designed to lend themselves to the combination of fabrics and the addition of quilting, patchwork, appliqué, etc.

Assembly is done in easy step-by-step processes along with unique work- and time-saving techniques. Linda's trademark words have always been "you are the designer."  Linda also says, "If you're like me, you'll find designing with fabric is a heck of a lot more fun than working with sheet metal!"

As of today Linda has 18 different bag patterns available.  Click here if you'd like to take a closer look at her fresh and fabulous patterns.
