Few other handbags

Today only images with a description!

This was a big kit that I made a few years ago. I added him handle and turned it into a beautiful bag.



Brown denim fabrics with golden ons and lace of the same color.
Small but I can put in her keys, tissues, lipstick ..............



Beautiful shining denim fabrics (skirt in a previous life) transformed into a smaller case.



These are my first attempts to put on a tin can and a cardboard box in the shape of a heart in denim fabrics.

I am in love with jeans

For a long time I did not have the opportunity or the will to do something,
 but I am now back with a lot of ideas.
The possibility of making thousands of fantastic things of old blue jeans and other solid materials is a great motivation.

                                                     Shopping Bag with appliqued oldtimer`s



It is quite big, it can fit a lot into it



this picture is terrible but I have not learned to handle our camera, sorry





- recycling jeans; skirt with lace trim, a lot of details and a lot of layers to sew.  
                         I only broke one needle ...................                   



- small projects; cases for phones or other small necessities

two summer bags

Last week, I started to collect all kinds of linen fabric and I managed to get a pair of hand-woven towels. Armed with these treasures I began to sow. To short a long story , the work process was exciting and interesting like the final result.
I think these two summer bags are perfect for every occasion! I love them!
 Here I added and a little crocheted flower that I was saving for a special project
 
Both are spacious and fairly lightweight.

 

In the first bag I took for the inside a thin, light jeans fabric and sew on linen pocket on it. In the second bag I picked up a brown cotton and white linen and combined pockets of them.







 Another detail: pearl button, a flower and a little amateur embroidery.

roses and a bag, again

This wonderful material I decided to spend to the last inch.
I combined it with a dark blue flax, and each side I quilted differently. The result is not bad but there are room for improvement!

                                                                              
Inside I put two pockets, all in various shades of blue.                                                                        


In the end, just to show what is currently on my shoulder when I go somewhere!


It's a reversible bag. There is no batting, just two layers of fabric with a pocket and a button.














Another reversible bag that has not received the attention it deserves!

bags and pillowcases

During a visit to my parents, I saw pillowcases that I made ​​for my mom last year.
Mom is my biggest fan who encourages me and my work and major donor of  fabric.



Making this floral pillow was so much fun. It was interesting to look everywhere for floral fabric.
I used some old clothes so this is also a pillowcase full of memories.

Before starting the trip, I managed to make a bag.

Now I admit that I really became addicted to bags!!

My mother in law gave me a few crocheted pieces, they were lying in a drawer for 20-30 years.
I was delighted by their unusual shapes and fantastic quality of cotton thread. I assembling them with a rough linen and an additional layer of bating.
The result is ..... judge for yourselves (fantastic).
I plan to make a few more!
