First up, some photo sharing of the progress I have made on my friend's Amy Butler Weekender Bag, which has been going amazingly smoothly so far (dare I say it)...even the zip :-P
Preparing the cording...

The main panels with large front pockets and handles, all ready...

Zip all done...

I'm pretty happy with my progress. I have completed 10 out of the 13 steps so not long now and I'll have a finished 'weekender bag' to show, and my friend will finally get a hold of it too :-)
Also, last week I finished up 3 new totes...
Songbird

Robot Camp

Streets of Paris

All available now in my Made It shop for $25.

ReplyDeleteAs usual, i love your work. Bags are looking ace hun :-)
ReplyDeleteYour work is always so beautifully finished! Can't wait to see the weekender bag :)
ReplyDeleteSuch a clever chookie ;D the weekender bag looks awesome Kell..hugs xxx
ReplyDeleteIf I wasn't so full of baby, I'd be jumping out of my skin at that Weekender Bag! I am so excited about it and Kell, you look like you are doing it way to easy! Maybe I need to find you a harder challenge next time? Look forward to packing it full of "stuff"... Also love the other bags you made - so hard to pick a favourite, they all have their own adorable quirks and $25 is a steal. So glad I didn't see these before the weekender bag or decisions about fabrics would have been all the harder. From someone who cannot sew a hole in a sock, I bow to you! Kylie
