The Goofy Cat Handbag

When I start sewing, I just can't stop. I forget to eat, drink, take the dog out. I'm a bit exaggerating, but still when there's an idea stuck in my head I have to get it done! It's like reading a good book when you have to finish it and in the meanwhile you forget about the world around you.
Do you remembet the navy blue handbag from the previous post? I made several bags from that sewing pattern. I decidet to call it The Goofy Cat Handbag 'cos it looks a bit like a smilling cat as one reader told me.

I love the colour of this one. It's not red and it's not pink, it's something in between. 

For the interior fabric I choose this contrasting yellow silk.

This is also one of my favourite fabrics. 

For  the inside of the bag I choose red silk. 
If a use my imagination this bag (when opened like that) reminds me of a young hungry blackbird with open beak crying for food. 

Last but not least - the bag with lovely butterflys. 
Gone to Australia as a giveaway

and little birds for the inside.

One of those lovely bag is going to be a giveaway bag in the following days!

My new creation and an upcoming giveaway!

First of all, this blog post was posted a few days ago, but blogger just throw it away. This is the first time it happened and I sure hope the last time as well. I'm really sorry to all of you who couldn't access to my blog and to all of you who already wrote comments at this blog post. Here we go again:   

I had an image in my head of this small, Summer bag and I just had to make it. It was like an itching I had to scratch. I used this nice navy blue fabric for outside wich I bought at KA International in Barcelona.


and cute little birds for inside  
.
I used magnetic snaps for the first time.

For the first time I even did my own sewing pattern. Two actaully.


How should I call it? The pattern I mean? Any suggestions?

P.S.: Have you heard about sewmamasew's May Giveaway day? No? Well you better mark your calendar on the 23th of May, 'cos that's the day when there will be houndreds of blogger (including me) participating in giving away either Handcrafted Item(s), Handcrafted Item(s)+Supplies/Materials, Sewing and/or Knitting Supplies/Materials.
