Difficulty:

Category: Sewing

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women

Style: Traditional, Casual, Cute


Materials

Double quilted fabric, cotton fabric, thread, magnetic closure.

What was your inspiration?

I needed a nice handbag for myself. I am always sewing things for my girls and decided that it was my turn!

What are you most proud of?

I like how it came out and how simple it was for me. I guess that means I am getting a little closer to becoming an expert sewer!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Read the instructions and then read them again. I folded over the handles and pressed the seams instead of sewing it with right sides and and then having to turn. It is never easy for me to turn things right side out especially when they are really narrow.

Thank you! It was a rem I found at Joann's and thank goodness there was just enough to do this bag! This double quilted fabric is pricey. I have a black rem, too, and i am hoping to make another bag, but smaller.
