This week the autumn challenge with Studio 7T7 has been running on Facebook to make a tote from vide instructions and tips posted daily. The first challenge was to choose fabric for the body and lining. I have been following another challenge with Stash Hub, also this week. This inspired me to look at the leftovers from other projects and I selected these two cotton dressmaking fabrics.
Fortunately, my zippers by the yard are all in one place so I chose this celestial blue zipper but not wish I'd chosen a star zipper pull. The only purchase I made was the iron on fleece for adding to the main fabric.
Emma demonstrated how to add a professional element with rivets on the bag handle. Unfortunately I couldn't in them this week. I will look for them once we are back from holiday in October. The house will be messy before we leave as we are having three floors revarnished whilst we are away, so a lot of things will be temporarily stored in the kitchen and lounge.
What to work on next? The dress for my holidays, a quilt that is almost complete or my new cross stitch project.
