Fabric of the Moment.

This fabric was given to me by my Mom's friend to make a bag for her. The fabric is called George and it is part of the dress code for a wedding she is planning to attend next week so she decided to use a part of it for the bag...hence my involvement. Her instructions were "make it noticeable" and I intend to cos I plan to use some glass beads to make the very wide spaces between the flower thingy look less boring. I will also use the boarder patterns on the fabric as boarders for the bag I intend to make... ooh lovely, I cant wait to start. Check back to enjoy the finished bag...just pray that I finish and deliver the goods on time o!

Re: Finding my feet

I found this picture when I was transferring all my stuff to a new computer I just got. I was pleasantly surprised cos I thought I had lost the pictures. Hmm! though I made this bag like 2 years ago I can still remember the almost sleepless nights I had because I thought I was never going to have the bag ready on or before the deadline I was given. My friend Ngozi was moving to school abroad and she needed a new bag for the new life she was starting and I never thought I was going to get the bag right... not to mention have it ready on time. The bag is very roomy and satchel like (cantremember the measurement), made with hand dyed canvas and leather, the bag also contains phone pouches and a zipped compartment. Needless to say that I delivered the bag on time and Ngozi said I was wasting my time with my day job.
