Sewing becomes easier

While I sewed the last 4 bags (two I could not even take pictures) I noticed that sewing becomes easier. 
The process of planning, cutting and sewing bag has become much simpler. 
I was not aware of it until I noticed that the process of making bags runs smoothly, without frustration and dead-end moments.
Just a couple of pictures of the last bag, which become larger and larger!!!!

 A similar bag I made last spring, and this is a bit larger and with more detail.

     
The next bag is an example how a  high-quality new jeans becomes a  high-quality bag!

 

New experience

Dear friends invited me to the fair of traditional crafts in Brcko.  
With the summer heat we hung out, sold quite a lot of things and made  ​​new friends,
 a new experience for me. 
 If you are interested in how and who was there, see here

I had to quickly make a few bags, the best excuse to start to sow.

 next one

the last one

 
PS: 90% of my creations are made from recycled trousers and jackets, shirts and other garments

Natural materials

After a long summer break, several bags of natural materials; of course, linen, cotton, jeans ..........
All bags are sewn from pieces that were left from previous works and proof that good things do not have to be expensive.

A pair of jeans with a little imagination and a decorative button .................

 On the handles I like the wrinkled look of the linen

 
A solid little purse with lots of details



 

colorful beauty

This colorful beauty is sewn nearly three years ago but I've never managed to take a picture of  her.
An example of what can be made from the remnants of fabric, bating and lots of  time.
She is 185 x 185 cm ( cca.72x72 inc. )

Unfortunately I have to admit that the quilt is not completely finished, I have lots of handqulting to do.

  

This is not my biggest quilt but I spent the most time on it (and it's not quite finished)

I'm still here

I have not had much time for sewing but I managed to  photograph what I did last.
These are, and how could it be otherwise, bags of denim fabric!!!!!

 Spacious and simple bag, the material is beautiful and expressive enough to not need any other details

 I was in the mood of spring and this is the result.

 Slightly smaller and more elegant.

 Poor picture of a beautiful bag which was bought by a young couple. The man was a little disappointed because I do not have anything similar for men. When I get some time ................

the fair and new bags

Last Saturday I was in the bazaar in Bijeljina, wonderful people and exhibitors, new people and a few new customers.
I think it is better that the pictures and my little comments say it all.

 

there was not much place for presentation but I think this was enough

greeting cards, decorative boxes all paper 

Several of my new bag:

 Leather and denim fabrics, very stable, but I spent a lot of time and broke several needles

 The back is black denim fabrics with red decorative stitching, provides many possibilities for
combination with clothing

 My amateur attempt decorative embroidery on the bag. Small colorful handbags for girls.

Jeans again

Getting ready for Saturday. I sewed a few jeans bag.
I'm really tired so I only display a few pictures without great comments. Actually a better preview of my works can be obtained at https://www.facebook.com/milka.ostojic.5

This bag is not finished yet, but until Saturday will be, for sure!

I really love doing bags and really I could use a few comments, suggestions ....
