My friend Tanya and I have a big problem. I love her handcrafted greeting cards (and more) and she loves the items I sew. Perhaps that's why I have a box full of lovely handmade greeting cards, and why she persuaded me to join her Etsy shop?
She recently asked me to make a few mini messenger bags. (Quilts Illustrated pattern ps010 Mini Messenger) I really like making these for a few reasons:
1) they don't use much fabric (you can even use up a lot of small scraps for the front flap)
2) they are REALLY easy (and would be great for a beginner)
3) they are quick
(plus it's fun to make something pretty and useful for a friend)
That's my kind of project! I really love how they turned out... especially this book themed bag:
The inside fabric is amazing! It looks like old library book check out cards. So cool!
The fabric for the second bag is very pretty, with a vintage feel. I love the contrast of the dark exterior to the light interior.
