thanks!

I got the bag making bug back (almost alliteration!) about a month ago, and finally had some time to sit down and figure out what was wrong with my machine tension, and churned out two bags in the past couple days.

They both were almost entirely stolen from bags I've seen while shopping and wanted to buy but really? I could make the same thing, so I just did that!



This took a yard of the blue and a 1/2 yard of the lining. It has a little inside pocket that is conveniently (not purposely at all) sized for my cell phone.

Shot of the lining/button closure:



and then the other one is smaller and meant for more like every day (the previous one was sewn with the beach in mind, or like a trip or something):



It's really just a square with some raised sides so it could fold over the rope nicely.



and it kind of matches my wallet a bit!



thanks for looking!

affordable fabrics is in rocky hill, like a 20 minute drive from hartford! 2119 Silas Deane Hwy., Rocky Hill, Connecticut (CT), 06067, USA that's the address.

what I do is sew the bottom to each of the four sides, and then sew it up from there! make sure all your corners match up!

I'm going to Uhart in about three days, and I'm gonna be a freshman, is there anyone else around that crafts? (I asked about knitters on ravelry, but no luck!)

I sew, knit, embroider a little, etc. I'd love to meet/hang out with someone (s) that do the same!

omgod! that is so cute! amazing job, it's a gorgeous chair (Now!).

this is actually a small version of a bag i make all the time! but there's no enough ribbon to go around a big bag.

thanks!

thanks!

i found these little things that had some really cute cupcake ribbon packaged along with a little felt cupcake! They were really cheap so I bought a few and made this purse!
