Frances McSherry

I create handmade handbags and scarves from fabrics collected from around the world. Some of my bags feature vintage fabrics from Paris, 1900.

I have been creating bags for the past three years. I am also a free lance costume designer for the theater and my work is often seen at New Repertory Theatre in Newton Highlands. I am currently on the faculty at Northeastern University.

My love of fabric started when I was little as I watched my mother and grandmother sew my clothes. I have been sewing for many years. My daughter (currently a junior at Newton North High School) started sewing bags for friends a few years back and she inspired me to create a line of bags and accessories for women interested in fashion accessories which are unusual and special.

Each bag is handmade by me in my studio and each is unique. My designs range from casual shoulder bags to elegant evening bags.
