Now that I've finished my handbag made from Karen Lewis scraps in blues and green with some lovely Essex linen and a Lotta Jansdotter lining I can take Karen with me wherever I go!
It has an internal zipped pocket and leather handles in navy blue! Apart from that it is a basic bucket bag - the sort you throw everything into, and then delve into, to find the thing at the bottom that you need. I love them and quite often use them for crafting stuff too.
I started this bag ages ago - it has been on my Finishalong list - well several of them. I wasn't happy with its floppiness but I asked Di how she made her bags stand up and went with her suggestion.
So I have finished it ! And it is my ninth finish off my Finish Along 2016 quarter one list.
I always show my Karen Lewis textiles on my plate so why change just because they are 3D ?
Looking forward to going out and about with Karen!
I will be linking this project to the Finish-A-Long 2016 at the quarter end
Fabulous bag.
