was working on another flip and sew


my last update was on 2 feb.  it was lisa's (my daughter) birthday then.  and today is alya's (my daughter too) birthday.  i haven't been able to do much sewing since then.  but today i was fiddling with this lot.  this is going to be my next bag.  maybe another ayu.  maybe a new design that i am working on right now.

i use the flip and sew technique.  i didn't plan the layout nor the colour combination.  i just pick up the fabric pieces as i go.  it's not hard at all coz i am working with american cotton.

cheers,

i would like to make something like these - the fabric version with some borrowed accent from leather trimmings

i have not been able to work on the bags.  i have been very busy with the little ones and their school work and the daily routine.  but i was able to use the 5-minutes-in-between to peek into some of the bag designs on the net.  here are some of them.  i would like to be able to make something like these.




i have started making some sketches and would like to work on  a 1/4 scale bag pattern as soon as i can find a comfortable and quite moment of me time.

cheers,
