Remember this stack of fabric?

And now here are these. First the red ones.
This was a very small bit of material (24 cm x 28 cm), so this is a very small handbag, so small I had to use another material for inside of the handel (you can se it on the first photo, if you look very closely). For a lady's night out when all you need is wallet, mobile phone and keys. It's 22cm wide and 21cm high, the handel is 40cm long it also has a zipper on top. And the price? Very favourable, only 24€.

Another small hand bag, also in red. This one is 24cm wide, 25cm high and handel is 46cm long, zipper on top. Price 26€.

Both of them together.

Then the orange ones.
Some like it orange. I love orange, especially with chocholate brown or with the colour of sand. It's a warm colour for those cold winter days.
First a small bag for credit cards or a small change, 14cm x 10cm, zipper, price 6€,

than a bit larger bag. 20cm x 21cm, velcro, price 18€.

And a larger handbag with two pockets in front. 35cm wide, 28cm high, pockets 18cm  x 22,5cm, handel 68cm, zipper, price 30€.

There is still some material left and I have a lot of ideas what to do with it, but I'm working on another project, so this will have to wait a bit. Just a sneak peak at my new project:

Super Style Bag Swap, par two

Do you rememeber Super Style Swap? I made a bag for Petra from Germany. She wanted a soulder bag. She likes flowers, stripes, dots, skulls, ladybus and her favourite colours are black, purple, gray, pink. I like the same colours and patterns so I could make plenty of bags, but eventually I decided to use material from KA International  It's called  SOHO NEGRO. 

For a bit of extra touch I decided to use red zipper insted of black.

It was fun and I would do it again anytime. So I hope there will be more projects like that.

You can see the rest of the bags made by others on Flickr.

Super Style Bag Swap

On sewmamasew I noticed this blog Join Our Super Style Bag Swap

and I decied to sign up. The idea is that everyone makes a bag of their own creation. The bag can be either shoulder bag, hand bag or clutch. Than you swap your bag with someone else and you get someone elses bag. How fun is that?! My partners name in Petra from Germany. I can't wait to start chosing the right material, form and eventualy sewing a bag for Petra. I am also curious what kind of bag I am getting! I'm so excited!

Dear Petra, if you are reading this, I hope I can make you a bag of your dreams.
