Learn It

This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Stitch & Slash »

Difficulty:

Category: Sewing

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women

Style: Mod


Materials

cotton fabrics: black/grey Moda marbles, 2 purchased hand-dyed fabrics, 1 batik, black and transparent thread, non-woven heavyweight interfacing, #70 Peltex for bottom and strips across the top front and back, fleece

What was your inspiration?

The exciting Stitch and Slash course, plus the need for a gift for a relative whose color preference is for blacks and other neutrals. My own preference is for a lot of color, so working in neutrals always seems to be a challenge for me.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Take the course! It opens up a world a new ideas.

Sheila_H - For some reason my replies to your question don't seem to be "taking" in the reply slot so I'll need to reply here. Go to: http://www.craftsy.com/classes/sewing Scroll down to "Stitch and Slash" and select. Great class. You'll learn to design your own project

I love this sophisticated tote and your design is wonderful. Color floats my boat too but neutrals are truly beautiful.
