New Purse

Just dashing off to get on the train (I’m in London — did I forget to mention?), but here’s a photo of the purse I made before flying over.

The best part is the matching wallet, actually, but I didn’t finish that until I was at the airport, so I haven’t got a photo yet. Left over velveteen from my Big Green Bag, Liberty cotton lawn, silk, and other cotton prints. It’s the perfect size for everything I need when I don’t need everything, and it’s a messenger bag style, so it keeps my arms free. Hooray!

    Very cool bag, Anna! Messenger style bags are the best kind. Who’s the printed fabric done by? It looks very similar to a few prints I bought from Etsy a few weeks back.

    Ooh, I really like your bag! It looks like a really useful shape and size. What does the inside look like?

    It looks beautiful!

    Taryn — The print is from Liberty; I got it when I was here in April.
    Feli — All my bags are my own design (sort of made up as I go). I’m afraid I don’t have any of my purse designs available at the moment.
    Thanks for the lovely comments, everybody — I’ll post more pictures of the inside and of the matching wallet when I get back to America!

    Oh what a lovely use for that fabric! (I’ve been too scared to cut mine.) I can’t wait to see the wallet.

    That is a DARLING purse – I love the striped/quilted-ish flap! Is that silk and corduroy together? What a fun mix of textures!

    You weren’t anywhere near Clapham Junction a few days ago, were you? If you weren’t you’ve got a doppelganger…
    The colour combo on that bag is lovely – it just looks so warm!
