The bag is simply shaped like a long tote bag with a 'boxy bottom' and the top folds over so it looks like a messenger bag. It was super easy to make apart from the bits where there were multiple layers of canvas to sew through. I used a 'jeans' needle for that. It was a bit noisy but my Husqvarna managed to do it in the end!
Look! I haz cute Ikea fabric lining too! |
So while I was actually using some of my stash to make this bag. Some new additions to my stash arrived!
The very lovely Katy and I did a scrap swap. That is to say: I sent her some sorry scraps, she sent me enough to make quilts for the whole neighbourhood!
Cute bag! I always get fabric in Ikea too! Its great for backing pillows I find!!
ReplyDeleteYour bag is so nice! Did you notice that I used all fabrics from my (donated to me) stash to do my friend's clutch :) ?
ReplyDeleteThis appeals to me- I probably will do one, too, and just find who needs one!
