A Hangbag

[thereyougothen]

I have finished my first "proper" handbag.  Designed from scratch at
Katherine Emtage's class at Leith Academy.

You can see her stuff at http://www.kattysbags.com

I'm quite happy with it.  I even embellished it.  I find myself
getting quite into embellishing things all of a sudden.  Nothing is
complete without a flower or a frill.

 

I don't have pictures of any other bags I've made - I've done two machine
knit, and quite a few crochet ones, just never kept the bags.  I see
more bags in my future.

When i finish sewing wedding clothes.  I need a whip cracking I
think.

nice finishing touches! :) I still have to finish the lining on my first one - will leave that for tomorrow though, when I have to stay in for our new fridge...

ta. yeah, this prettying up of things can be quite addictive!

i'm going to redo it again though. not sure if it's becasue i don't like it enough to use it, or if it will just save me from hemming again!
