Made from cape wool remnants, a bag I made for myself for everyday winter-wear. Antique buttons adorning the strap were gifted to me by my friend Jen's mother - happy to have found the perfect use for them:)
This is just beautiful, incredibly beautiful. I envy you :) I would gladly have appeared on the town with such a miracle:) my city completely buried with snow today, so I'm sending greetings with the scent of jasmine tea :)
Thanks so much everyone!! The bag went on its first journey today...out to see Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. A wonderful outing, beautiful day with a wintery chill in the air.
Such a wonderful bag...adore my sister green velvet red fox that you made me, people stop me all the time to ask about it. Glad you found the perfect use for the buttons :)

ReplyDeleteFala - to answer your question...this is a machine embroidery design, but I edited the colors a bit.
ReplyDeleteJen - thank you and your mom for the lovely buttons!!!
Gorgeous, you certainly make good use of your embroidery... attachment? feature? ;)
ReplyDeleteMer - thank you!!! I guess it would be an attachment as it is a big module that attaches to the machine. I'm still learning (slowly) to use it.
ReplyDeleteOhhhh I love the bag! I wish it were for sale, lol. Its really gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteAngela - Thank you so much. I had such a great time making this one, I might just make more! If so, I'll post a preview before they go on Etsy.

ReplyDeleteThanks Stephanie. It is so me and is now my favorite "every day" purse to carry.
ReplyDeleteWonderful, i love the white heart design, you have inspired me to want to make myself a new wee bag! x
ReplyDeleteRuthie - I'm all about the wee bag!!! Hope you will share photos of yours.
ReplyDeleteThat is so perfectly beautiful! I wish I was a better seamstress. Ever thought about making them to sell?
