Bag 12 - Mini Tote??? Empty Bag 12 - Mini Tote???

Post by Lorraine Tue 22 Apr 2014 - 22:24

Can't think of a name for this one.  It was an experiment really, so I didn't use my 'faves' fabrics for it.  It's only 10" tall by 7½" wide with side gussets of 2½" but there are 8 pockets in it.  Some construction techniques I hadn't come across before and I think, if it was bigger, well, certainly wider, it would be a super bag. It's a handbag as I didn't have enough fabric left to do shoulder straps which I think would be much better.  Sorry some of the pics are crap, I'm knackered and couldn't care less, lol.  It was quite hard to photograph the inside 'cause it's not very big.

Front with a flap pocket and an elasticated pocket on each side gusset.

Inside on the back of the lining is a zip pocket with two open pockets on the front of that.

How about 'Not William Morris' it's puts me in mind of a Morris pattern. Lots of lovely pockets, a bit busy though, horses for courses though, I don't hate it and there will be others who lurrrve it, it'll sell, don't you worry.

Busy..yeah, that's the word. Too busy for me! I've also got this same fabric in just black and white which isn't quite so in your face.

It's a fabulous fabric, but can't think of a name - sorry! I love all the pockets, too: can't have enough.

Love all the pockets, I like the idea of making it wider.
