And I finished the linen bag I was embroidering. I really like it's shape. It is a very balanced purse. 100% linen on the outside with embroidered design, fully interfaced, fully lined, 12 '' zipper, 2 smaller pockets, magnetic closure, and reversible if wanted. Fits wonderfully over the shoulder.
I really am pleased with how this came out. I need to make another bag like this. I love the vintage sheet I used for the lining. It's so soft to the touch.
Now I need to clean up the sewing/craft/office/storage/my closet space room. I was promised that the computer with Photoshop would be set up once we could see the desk. My husband makes my life better through technology!
i love that purse too! such a great print. and the zipper pulls on both are adorable. I should make more pouches--they're so handy and useable!
ReplyDeletei am doing the same thing as you today- cleaning up the room and desk. my desk is quite small (the one the computer is on), but it would still be nice to see it!
and....thank you~! i received the tags yesterday and LOVE them all! in fact I've already used one! i didn't get a chance to post them yet but they'll be up today!
Oh, I think you need to make one of those for each of your blog friends. That is gorgeous!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI just LOVE that purse! And the little zipper pouch too. Your creativity just keeps shining! And your talent too.
ReplyDeleteI love that purse! So pretty. And the embroidery is wonderful. The zipper pouch is adorable. Great work!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely bag! I love the embroidery and the shape.
ReplyDeleteLeeAnn,
ReplyDeleteI'm really impressed with all your zipper sewing! I'm finding them tricky to do on a bag with the lining. Do you have a zipper foot? How did you learn the technique? Yours look so professional!
Oh i love both your projects! They look great!
ReplyDeleteI was looking at both bags, thinking how fabulous the lining in each was, and then saw that the second one is reversible! Awesome work.
ReplyDeleteOh they are wonderful. And the fact that they are re-cycled makes me love them even more. Such a super job!!
ReplyDeleteLove Cherry xx
Ooh! Ooh! I love the shape of that bag, too. And all the details. Brilliantly done!
ReplyDeleteI surfed here from just like sew, and must read you regularly now. Thank you for blogging!
Lee, those look lovely! People would pay $$ for that, so pretty, especially the white with embroidery! -K
ReplyDeletevery, very nice.
ReplyDeleteThat bag turned out so cute, & I love the vintage sheet too. I just unpacked all of my fabrics from my move and have loads of ideas floating through my head. It's fun to use what you have sometimes, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteI couldn't leave a note on the most recent entry so let me try here.
