Octopus Shoulder Bag

Posted in Fresh From My Sewing Machine, and Sewing: Finished Bags & Pouches

Who doesn’t love an octopus? This gorgeous bag is finished and already up on my shop. It is a striking black and gray bag.

This fun octopus zipper pull from Wondergroundfabrics was my inspiration for this bag. The zipper pull matches octopus fabric I had on hand. The octopus fabric has an ink print style octopus – got to love a good pun! 🙂 The fabric background is a very faint gray damask print, giving the bag a bit of class.

I paired this bag with these cool matte black rivets from Springfield Leather and gunmetal hardware.

This 14 x 11 x 5 inches shoulder bag has a adjustable crossbody strap as well as comfortable and textured faux leather handle straps. Two very large pockets on the exterior and more pockets on the inside.

Green, black and gray polka dots remind me of air bubbles under the sea, around the octopus. An octopus zipper charm inside for a touch of whimsy.

This bag was very fun to make! It’s already up on my Etsy shop ,ready to be loved!
