Black and White Tweed Purse

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

This sophisticated black, white, and a touch of silver tweed is the perfect work to evening purse.

black & white tweed purse

I love this tweed fabric. It is a tightly woven tweed and has a nice feel to it. There are stands of black, white and just a bit of silver to give it some light. I paired this bag with a silver chain and hardware to accent the silver.

The bag measures 11 x 6.5 x 3. I added a silver turn lock closure. There are 2 chain connectors at the top of the bag. I balanced the connectors so the bag does not tip forward when you carry it on your shoulder.

The silver curb chain is removable. I usually attach my chains permanently to the connectors, but I thought I would try making them removable. Sometimes my customers would like to replace it with a favorite chain strap of their own.

This beautiful bag is my design. It is a variation of a bag I designed for a customer’s special orders. It is already posted and ready to ship: Black Tweed Purse Enjoy!

Rainbow Quilted Purse

quilted rainbow bag by sibstudiosewing on Etsy

Isn’t this bag a beauty?!! It’s perfect for date night, weddings, work to evening events, and even everyday! I enjoyed making this bag and was happy with how it turned out!

The fabric is a quilted metallic rainbow vinyl. It has a pearl like sheen and catches the light. The rainbow is muted and beautiful. The vinyl is quilted in a chevron stripe and has a nice feel. The bag measures 11 x 6.5 x 3 inches.

The above image with the back of the purse. The gold curb chain is attached to the 2 top chain connectors. The connectors are placed so the bag is balanced and doesn’t want to tip forward when you are carrying it.

The flap is closed with a beautiful gold and purple sparkle sakaru cherry blossom flower magnetic clasp. The inside is lined with purple cotton & has 2 slip pockets and a zipper pocket.

This bag is one of my designs. It is a variation of one I designed it for a customer special order. I used foam interfacing so the bag isn’t too heavy or stiff. I also like that it keeps it’s shape no matter what you put your purse through during the day. It also gives a little cushioning to you and your items inside the bag.

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!
