Who's Behind Handbags with J. Christine

What’s up bag makers! My name is Julissa, that’s (Jew-lee-suh)! I am the owner of handbags with J. Christine or HBWJC, for short! You may also come across my work, on social media, under J. Christine handbags, which is for bags that I make and sell and to share bags I have made for myself. 


My sewing experience actually comes from a sewing course I took way back in the day, in 7th grade. I actually won an award at the end of that school year! I ended up making the required pajama pants and quilt on top of 2 additional quilts I made for my sisters, that Christmas. 


I am a self taught bag maker and leather crafter, and that journey started in 2017. I have done a handful of vendor and craft shows, including the Arizona Women’s Expo, in 2022, along with owning an online store of made to order handbags. Fast forward to today, I am bringing you Handbags with J. Christine, to teach uou everything I have learned and love about bag making and leather crafting! 


I am a mother, a wife, and a child of God through my savior Jesus, without who I would not be where I am today! My real

Mission is to spread the good news through the gifts and talents I was given. 


I can’t wait to make these bags with y’all! Let’s go!
