Mushroom Hobo Style Shoulder Bag

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

How cute is this bag?

I love this faux leather vinyl and it turned into such a beautiful shoulder bag! I opted to use the vinyl for the entire exterior of the bag, instead of pairing it with a solid. The faux leather is a high quality vinyl that should last and last.

This lovely shoulder bag is a hobo style bag measuring 14 x 11 x 5 inches. It’s a great size for everyday. It would make a fun statement bag as well as a bag for the person who is wild about mushrooms.

I added a zipper panel to this bag. The zipper is long so you can keep the zipper open for a hobo style bag or zip it up to keep your bag closed. The zipper pull is a little gnome – he seemed to go well with a mushroom bag 🙂

Inside is roomy with a large zipper pocket and another slip pocket. I modified the Estrella Bag pattern by Oro Rosa patterns for this bag. It’s one of my favorite bags to sew that isn’t my own design 🙂

Green Designer Tweed Bag

Posted in Fresh From My Sewing Machine, and Peeking Behind the Seam

This lovely green tweed bag is my newest bag. It’s a perfect sized rectangle shaped bag with top zippers. An adjustable strap allows the bag to be worn as a shoulder bag, or lengthen to a crossbody bag. I love the gold ring details on this bag.

The green tweed is a gorgeous designer tweed from Italy. It has a nice soft feel with a tight weave, making this fabric pleasant to touch as well as sturdy. I bought this fabric for a custom order and had some leftover. I thought it would be perfect for this bag!

I love the look of this bag and the size ( 10 x 7 x 4 inches ) is a great size – not too big and not too small. The tweed makes this bag perfect for work to evening. I used the Laverna pattern from SewYours for this bag. I create & use my own patterns for much of my sewing. However, there are some amazing bag makers out there recently & it is fun to try out their patterns and learn new ways. 🙂

In addition to the lovely gold ring details on the front, the back has a generous outer zipper – perfect for phones and keys.

Inside is a fun green, white, and black floral print. There another zipper pocket and 2 addition slip pockets as well.

This lovely bag is already posted on my Etsy shop . Feel free to take a look!

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!
