Arm Candy!

Hello there.

Not one but two new bags to share with you today!

I had such fun designing and making these two beauties.
And yes, I do feel justified calling them 'beauties' lol.

Lovely fabrics

Pretty vintage buttons

Special stitches

Pretty trims

Lots of machine embroidery (this is the back, isn't it wonderful! It's a secret that only you and I have seen, safely hidden behind the pretty lining fabric now)

Here's the front.

And the front of the second bag.

I do like to hand finish. It makes all the difference, much neater, a way of adding a little bit of love and care to each project.

I nearly forgot to show you the inside! I'm quite a practical girl, I like pockets and a long ribbon tape to secure my keys. (long enough to unlock my door with out removing the keys.)

Here's the back of one of the bags.

And the back detail of the other one.

Hmmm...floral goodness.

A bit of recycling, a bit of vintage, some re-purposing and a lot of pleasure (for me making)

Ta-daa!

One front, one back

Ta-daa! again,

both fronts.

Thank you for letting me share my art.

Love Fi x
