25.01.2022 So just what have I been doing with my time? Finishing existing project items, creating new custom bags, producing new bag patterns, learning new skills and techniques for better finishes, speeding up projects with new ideas and tools. If you want to see the exciting new ranges of Scrappy shoppers, Heart applique bags, Cushions with inserts made entirely from recycled items then you need to check out the new ranges of products coming onto the market from tomorrow morning. Fi...rst to see exclusive items will buy one of my special custom designs, never 2 exactly the same, celebrating our uniqueness as humans using fabrics as the storyline. #beyondawesomebags is my project to promote #mentalhealthawareness #disabilityawareness #environment #VIOLENCEISNEVEROK and other community causes Anita Southall Harris

17.01.2022 Final completion of large project. I've learnt I have strengths and weaknesses. That I can't promise to be a perfect person. But that with extra time I can produce a quality product. My thanks to my client for staying the course and being patient with my disabilities so that I can use my abilities for some good purpose. Because even in struggle life has to have meaning. #beyondawesomebags #mentalhealthawareness #disabilityawareness... #home #sewingproject #cushions See more

15.01.2022 Why buy a REAL FABRIC BAG? you ask? Here is the information from our local council CREDIT to Source: https://www.cgg.wa.gov.au/live/my-home/fogo-trial.aspx Is there a difference between recycled, biodegradable and compostable bags?... Yes, recyclable, biodegradable and compostable are often used interchangeably but they do not mean the same thing. The term biodegradable actually doesn’t mean anything because everything is biodegradable eventually. Using the term biodegradable to describe plastic bags implies the plastic will decompose when it becomes waste. Although some bags labelled ‘green and degradable’ or ‘naturally degradable’ contain a chemical additive which makes them break down faster into smaller micro plastic fragments they are still made from normal plastic (polyethylene) so they are not in fact ‘green’ at all. They also don’t fully decompose in landfill because the required oxygen to decompose the product is too low nor does the process to create compost generate enough heat to decompose the plastic Recyclable bags are also made from normal plastic (polyethylene) so they are basically the same as biodegradable bags. They will only break down into smaller micro plastic fragments if they contain a chemical additive triggered by oxygen or heat and therefore do not fully decompose in landfill. Compostable bags on the other hand are often made from farmed products such as cornstarch, which means the bag can break down into carbon dioxide, water, inorganic compounds and biomass in about 90 days. This rate is similar to items you might see in backyard compost such as leaves and paper. Compost works because millions of tiny microbes consume the waste and transform the organic material into compost. So I make and sell only REAL FABRIC WASHABLE BAGS that can be sanitized and recycled for a lifetime of pleasure in the knowledge you are definitely taking responsibility for your carbon footprint #beyondawesomebags supporting #mentalhealthawareness #disabilityawareness #environment and #Antidomesticviolence #1800RESPECT

14.01.2022 A very special welcome to all those people who I've met in my travels for #AWESOMEOZTREK2020. Thanks for viewing my page, liking my posts and listening to my story. Being able to share my passions and wanting to support my causes is very dear to my heart. Stay tuned for more news as I return to my home state and get the sewing machine rolling again with more new designs and products.

14.01.2022 #beyondawesomebags is always open for sewing requirements mending jobs and clothing repairs and alterations. This month is Breast Cancer Awareness month and new stock is being made to honour the passing of my mother Gillian DEW. The focus is on making things in any pink fabric. Early detection gave her another 10 years. Please support my causes #mentalhealthawareness #disabilityawareness #environment #1800RESPECT

13.01.2022 Great to be back in the community on Sunday, thanks for your support

13.01.2022 Today I found this wonderful video about being more inclusive with people who just so happen to also have disabilities. It's high time we all stopped to discover what ABILITIES everyone still has despite their personal situations. One of the reasons I do what I do with my sewing and bag making is to take a more positive focus out into the world. #beyondawesomebags #mentalhealthawareness #disabilityawareness #environment #VIOLENCEISNEVEROK ... #livingmybestlife #AWESOMEOZTREK2020

13.01.2022 Just in case you are a skeptic about Face Mask wearing every time you leave your home this should change your mind! https://www.youtube.com/watch https://www.youtube.com/redirect

12.01.2022 Honestly I would rather have something than nothing but here is the best I have seen. Which is why if you have these supplies available I would make this style for the most needed personnel.

11.01.2022 Just booked a stall for Dongara Christmas markets on 19th December 2020. Have not been there since January 2020 when we left Geraldton to go travelling. Looking forward to meeting new folks and seeing old friends that week. Try looking for us near the rotunda at Town Park. Get your Christmas themed bags to use to shop or as Christmas wrapping that is environmentally friendly. Pictures coming soon!

10.01.2022 Some stall photos from Sunday morning

10.01.2022 First time back doing a bag stall on Sunday morning. Bit nervous after more than 16 months without any public stalls. Catch us up at The Rotary Club Car Boot Sale Sunday morning 22nd November @ Retravision Mitchell and Brown From 8am til Noon. Wish us luck and congratulations to all customers getting their bags from #BEYONDAWESOMEBAGS ... Anita Southall Harris

06.01.2022 I keep doing external research to assist my personal planning and information. This short video should convince you that mask wearers can have useful benefits as well as be a caring way to protect your own community from unintended transmission. The better the mask, the better it might work to save lives. At the very least, as this doctor explains in plain English the mass fed information that we have been getting fed by many governments, falls well short of informed conse...nt for our communities. You make up your own mind. I am making masks of many versions and so until I get it right, I'm going to wear one. And wash and wear another and another.... In every public space within 6 metres not 6 feet of other people. #stayhome and #staysafe #BEYONDAWESOMEBAGS #sayyestomasks #Masks4All https://youtu.be/ycf6bAMKgjg

01.01.2022 Let me tell you a bit about #beyondawesomebags. Every bag I now make has higher levels of stitching construction. If it were just another bag, I wouldn't sell them because I have pride in my designs, my skills and my work. Every bag comes with a story attached just like every human life is important. The attached photo shows denim and black. ... Denim for the working people in our society, black for the black dog of depression. The bases of my lined bags are multi stitched down so nothing can break them, including your groceries and heavy carried items. Just like if someone like me can help another person to be stronger by giving them some of my hard fought for strength as I continue to fight for my genetic mental health every day for the rest of my life. In my life, every stitch, every bag I make counts for something. Depression and anxiety does not discriminate between different groups of people. My aim is to raise awareness of the cost to our country and communities if we don't fight to be socially inclusive of people who suffer from mental health issues. Or disabilities. Or past or current domestic violence. Your purchase of a #beyondawesomebags bag or other product encourages and helps me to be available to those in need. People who need a listening ear when no one else will listen. The ability to donate goods and services to many in our community left homeless by house fires, bush fires and other life challenges. Every thing I do including my sewing is done with heart for humanity. That's just part of my story, please share yours in any comments below. Thank you for reading this post. Helpline numbers are also included for those in need.
