If you are a big bag girl then the Khome Tote Bag is right up your alley. I have to confess that when I started these bags I had started them off as January Bags but somewhere in-between sewing up the cut outs and fixing the bottom cups the style morphed into these beauties ππππΎ
For these bags I tried something I had wanted to try out for a while now but was never sure it was going to come out right, the leather cutout with 3D dyed canvas laid peeking out through the cutouts...makes sense? Oh well I guess you can see what amma trying to say lol! My major worry was getting a smooth cut all through especially at points where two lines meet. I must admit that making these cutouts were easy enough... prolly its cause they are basically straight lines although I had to sharpen my knife after almost every cut. Rounder/curvier shapes might be a bit more difficult to pull off but seeing as these turned out, I'm looking forward to trying out more shapesππΎππΎ the possibilities are endless... #Icantwait
So, about the bags, The Khome totes measure approx. 14"Wide, 12" High and 5" Deep. The interior of each bag has 2 phone pouches, a zipped compartment and an extra pouch and bag zips to close. The handle of bag is very shoulder friendly lol, also the base of bag is protected by 6 bottom cups.
Check out some of the behind-the-scenes pictures below and well as more pictures of the Khome Tote Bag. Unfortunately I always forget to photograph my bag making processes from the beginning, I guess I'm always excited when I'm starting something new that I jump right in and only realise what I didn't do only when I come up for air and by then it's to late to start so... I guess in this case half bread is better than none abi? Will do better ππ
So, what do you make of our Khome Tote? Would love to hear your two cents.
Thank you so much for stopping by and may life be good to you- Amen.
