I thought I would take a bit of a rest from art journaling, not because I do not want to do it, but because my livingroom was becoming rather cluttered with art materials. I also had a bag I needed to make for someone, who wanted it as a mothers day present. I will have my own present to make soon so I thought I might as well get it made and out of the way. This meant putting away the art stuff and getting out the sewing machine instead. This post is really a show case of the bag I have just made today. It took approximately 4 hours to make. In writing this post I am thinking that perhaps I should have taken photos of the process and shared. However, I didn't so I cannot change that. What I can do is tell you all that the bag is of a simple lined shopping bag design and tutorials can be found on YouTube and no doubt pinterest. So without further ado. I bring you my latest creation.
The red stripe at the top came about simply because I did not have enough material left to make the full thing in the same dog material. The tag reads - Handmade with love.Thank you all for stopping by T
What a gorgeous bag! Hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteThank you Valerie. I think the material is what really makes the difference, though I am rather proud of how well lined up the seems are, that part could have gone so horribly wrong. Time, patience and accurate measuring helps. :)
DeleteI love the contrasting red at the top, such a gorgeous bag x
