From W.D., Georgia ~ Thanks so much for outfitting my servers with your aprons! Everyone that comes into the restaurant loves them and we get compliments constantly from our customers!

From M.M., Virginia ~ Hi, Carrie! My new bag was delivered last week, and I love it. I ordered this same bag from you about a year and a half ago to use when I went to the gym. I am the mother of a 21-month old boy, but I have always loved pink toile. When I received it, I realized it was better suited as a diaper bag, or bag for a little girl or a mom with a little girl, so I gave it away as a shower present. A very popular shower present! Well, I am less than two weeks away from having another baby. This time it's a girl, so I am thrilled to have my own! Thanks so much for the great product. I love the burp clothes, which I have ordered before, and I love the changing pad. That's the nicest one I have ever seen.

From J.P., Oregon ~ I just received my lavender liner order, and I can't believe how wonderful these are! I was planning to give it to my secretary, but I'm keeping this one for myself, and ordering another for her. Make that about 5 more - these are the perfect gift! Thank you!

From C.T., California ~ Hi Carrie, OMG!!! I LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!!! It is just perfect! I know people are going to ask where i got it....... I'll be sure to let them know! You are so FAST too! WOW! Thank you!!! (BIG Grin) I just LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!! (Miraleste Shopper)

From J.K., California ~ I just got my Sommer Designs bag from Carrie last week and I am in love! I got the Miraleste Garden Party tote with fabric handles. My bag has a wallet, phone, sippy cup, journal (you never know when the mood will hit), 3 small steno pads for Mikey to color with, several pens, eyeglasses and holder, sunglasses and holder, and 3 tubes of lip gloss. I love the fun summer fabric (I can wear it with everything in my closet--this summer I'm into candy colored t-shirts) but what really sold me was that her bags come with feet. That's big for me because I hate it when my bag gets dirty from the shopping carts, etc.

From A.S., Virginia ~ I received my apron yesterday! I seriously wore it around the house for several hours. I love it!!

From C.C., Washington ~ I love my apron! I just received it and promptly came back and ordered 5 more for holiday gifts! Wow! I can't wait to give them to my friends!

From K.M., Colorado ~ Hi Carrie, thanks so much for outfitting my bridal party with the most beautiful hostess aprons! They loved them! It was such a great bridal party gift, and I know you will be hearing from a few of them as the holidays approach! Thank you again!

From C.L., California ~ I bought an apron from you at the September PV Farmer's Market, and I love it! I just noticed that you will be at the Manhattan Beach Hometown Fair, and I can't wait to stop by and visit again! This time, I'm bringing my Christmas list!

From M.M., Virginia ~ Hi, Carrie, I just received my order yesterday. As the working mother of a five month old, I rely on on-line shopping. My husband says refers to the UPS delivery man as my boyfriend. Well, I almost had a heart attack when I was feeding the baby and my husband attempted to open your package! Yikes. I told him to put the scissors down and back away slowly.

I was so excited to open the package. I only got to the tote bag, but it’s fabulous! I intended to buy it for me, but since I have a son and since I’m invited to a shower for a girlfriend who is expecting a girl, I am going to give the pink toile bag to her. So, I’ll be placing another order very soon. I just can’t pick a fabric. Every one looks great!

In the meantime, I will enjoy opening the liner, burp clothes, and apron tonight!

From R.I., New Jersey ~ I just received my wine bag from you and I just want to tell you how lovely it is! I really like the way you packaged it as well. Thanks again for a quality item that I'll treasure for years.

From J.C., California ~ Hi Carrie - just wanted to let you know I LOVE my new Sommer Designs apron! It is perfect and I'm wearing it right now - it made my rather bleak day much nicer. Cute packaging too! Thank you!

From S.D., Oregon ~ Thank you for the six lavender liners for my bridesmaids! We just got back from our honeymoon, and I couldn't wait to let you know how much they loved them!

From K.A., California ~ I just received my hostess apron and I wanted to let you know how beautiful it is in person! I love the color and pattern combinations you use, they are so swanky-sweet! This will be perfect for my yearly Memorial Day Weekend Barbeque party! Thanks so much!

From J.C., Florida ~ Carrie...I received my beach bag today and it's totally FABU! Can't wait to take it up to our beach home next weekend. Thanks so much!

From K.L., Florida ~ Hey! Wanted to let you know I received the [lavender] liners on Saturday and they are gorgeous! I have been sniffing them all weekend… you used so much lavender!

From S.A., Washington ~ I just wanted to tell you that I just ordered my third bag from you! These are the only bags I carry now, I can't believe how well they hold up! I'm still using my very first purchase from 3 years ago!

From L.B., California ~ Wow, that was quick! I LOVE the bag. I LOVE the packaging... The key fob is awesome, and the package even SMELLED pretty. And the six pockets are the best... I can't wait to get out and about with my new bag!

From S.A., California ~ I discovered Sommer Designs when I was searching the internet for a pink toile bed spread. I never found the bed spread, so I bought the purse instead!

From A.G., California ~ I just received my chic Malaga Pink Paisley handbag and the wine tote yesterday. I love them both and can't wait to use them! The handbag is so cute with good craftsmanship! You do quality work! I love the design on the wine tote fabric too.

From M.R.I., California ~ Carrie, Stopped by your booth at the PV Farmers Market just to say hi (in Dec) and walked away with a bag that has more personality than most Hollywood starlets. (they don't call them that anymore, do they?). Anyway, my husband says that I have way too many purses and shoes, but what does he know, he's a man. :O) But I will say that even he says that this bag is a keeper. I'm looking forward to seeing more at your booth in February. I will probably break down and get the whole diaper bag collection for baby #2. And I'm not even pregnant yet. :O) BTW, my sisters and mom loved their bags; especially the sister that moved to Connecticut. Having been raised in PV, it was like taking a bit of home with her. See you soon.

From S.S., California ~ Oh Carrie!! The bag is sooooo gorgeous. It was supposed to be for my mom's birthday, but I couldn't resist and I gave it to her. Oh my gosh! Not that I expected any less, but it is stunning! Very well made and the perfect size. My mom was in shock. She is so happy and she just loves, loves, loves the purse. And she loves the flower that you sent. What a nice extra gift. Seriously, I can't say enough nice things about it. It is just gorgeous!

From F.B., California ~ I just received a red toile Malaga Bag for a Birthday gift and I have to tell you....It's fabulous! I just love it and I feel so lucky to have received it.

From L.R., Texas ~ I am amazed that these handbags are handmade! I just received a Del Cerro Tote and Malaga Bag and the workmanship is unbelievable. I can't wait to show them to the girls at the club! Thank you!

From A. K., Pennsylvania ~ Hi Carrie! I just received my bag and oh my gosh- it is absolutely AMAZING- I'm so excited! Let me tell you...I showed my husband who gets annoyed at my style addiction and he even said "wow, that's gorgeous"! Trust me, that's a HUGE compliment! The bag really is so well made, and the fabrics are vibrant and gorgeous- I just love it so! People around here will be asking me what boutique in the area I purchased my bag from, so I will be sure to pass on your name every chance I can get. Really, you do amazing work!

From T. M., Montana ~ What a sweet bag I just received! Thank you so much! You do such lovely work. It's sure to brighten my days after a long, cold winter! I can't wait to use it!

From C.D., California ~ I love my new Miraleste Shopper! It is so much more beautiful in person than online! The photos really don't do your bags justice, because they are just STUNNING!

From M.C., California ~ I received the Valmonte Diaper Bag Ensemble as a Baby Shower gift, and I love it! It's perfectly sized for everything I need to carry with me, and I love all the pockets - they are so roomy! I take it with me everywhere I go and constantly get complements! Thanks so much for designing such a great mommy bag!

From: Libby Ludlow, Fischer World Cup Team 2004/05; 2004 U.S. National Giant Slalom Champion, Washingon: Carrie - Thanks so much for the beautiful handbag! I love it...I can't believe how quickly you got it to me too! It's my first "big" purse and I'm psyched to have one that helps make me look cute & girlie when I'm off the ski hill! Thanks again!

From: H.B., Colorado ~ I got your handbag today, and WOW--it is absolutely gorgeous! I am thoroughly impressed with the quality and the presentation!

From P.F., Florida ~ Just wanted to tell you that I got my bag and I LOVE it! Thank You so much!

From: J.M.M., Pennsylvania ~ I am so in love with the bag. I have it sitting on a table right now and I keep walking by to admire it. It's perfect and exactly how I pictured it in my head - thank you so much! Anyway, not to gush too much, but I really really love it! I promise to carry your cards around in the pocket and hand them out when people admire it, which I'm sure they will.

From: R.O., California ~ Thank you for the beautiful bag! It looks just like what I wanted, and I'm so happy about how sturdy it feels, too.

From: M.M.E., California ~ What a find! I love my new hand bag so much I can't imagine ever putting it away. Not only is it a sturdy, well made, top quality handbag but the customer service and assistance from Sommer Designs is way above average. The owner of the company went out of her way to help me choose exactly the fabric and features I wanted and the result is simply - the perfect purse!

My new Sommer Designs handbag is so practical and pretty and fun to carry, I am ordering another for myself and several for my Mom and sisters. This is the best handbag I've ever owned and I think every woman needs at least one, if not several.

Thank you Sommer Designs, for coming up with an answer to my handbag dreams!

From: M.D., California ~ I received my Sommer Designs handbag as a gift last month, and I absolutely love it! Having been in the accessory business for many years, I can appreciate a bag which is functional, fun and very attractive. I used to change my bags daily, but since I started carrying my Sommer Designs bag, there is no need. I love the toile print! It works with everything and fits my cell phone, lipsticks and the many other things I carry in a bag. It's the perfect gift, and one I plan on giving over and over again!

From: A.E., Georgia ~ I purchased a bag from your company and I love it! My cousin wants one for Christmas and I may have waited too late. ... Please let me know something soon, as Christmas is only two weeks away!

A.E.'s new bag was customized, manufactured and shipped within 48 hours!

From D.C., Texas ~ I received my diaper bag today. I think it is gorgeous! I know my daughter is going to love it too! Thank you so much... You are such a kind lady! I hope we are able to find more to purchase...it is a big deal to see who can bring to prettiest bag to Church on Sunday. Ha!! Tiffany will have a beautiful one for this next Sunday! Thank you so so much!!

From J.G., Pennsylvania ~ The mailman just came with my tote bag. It is beautiful and just the little hint of Spring needed on this cold, snowy, Pittsburgh day! I can't believe how fast this came! Thank you so much, it's been a pleasure to buy from you.

From B.W., New Jersey ~ You are very talented, your bags are gorgeous.

From D.P., Arkansas ~ I love the bag! Thanks!

From D.M., New York ~ I received my bag today....IT IS SO BEAUTIFUL, It is more then what I expected. The craftsmanship on the bag is amazing. I can appreciate it from one sewer to another. Great detailing inside the bag, I love the yellow stripes and the little pockets. The bag is so chic but functional. I could have not asked for a better bag. I will sport it around when the weather gets better over here in NYC. It has been snowing the past couple of days, so I do not want to ruin your art piece

From C.K., Texas ~ Hello! I just wanted to let you know that we received the bag today. It is beautiful, my sister is going to love it! You do such an amazing job. All of my friends want one now! My husband and I are letting their husbands know for any of their special occasion!. Thanks again!

From D.T., Massachusetts ~ I received my bag today-- what fabulously fast sewers you have there! I love the bag, it is the perfect size and the retro floral print is a fun breath of summer air. Thank you for customizing it with 6 pockets! I will have to check your site next fall for a winter bag.... ;-)
Thank you!

From S.P., Oregon ~ A beautiful, lovely, amazing bag - incredibly well made! A fabulous value and superior customer service! Sweetheart, you aren't charging enough!
