Finally done…
I’ve sat on this one far too long. It was begun so long ago it’s embarassing.
I finally had a reason to finish it off & it’s been gifted.
I intended for it to be a “colouring in” bag so have included a set of acrylic paints & some fabric fixative.
But I think she likes it just as it is.
Made from thrifted curtain fabric, button & belt. The lining is a thrifted sheet.

The curtain fabric is amazing. Such a sweet thing to have the different coloured stitching. I’m sure it will be loved!

Kirsty this bag is lovely and I really like the idea of adding acrylic paints with it so that the receiver can colour in how they want it. Really nice job.

That fabric is amazing – I would want to colour it in; I have this thing with colouring between black lines
But then I’d be scared of ruining how gorgeous it is.

I got to hold this bag in the flesh…er, fabric – it’s so well made and I am really looking forward to seeing it ‘coloured in’.
