With winter coming closer I wanted a black bag and matching purse. So I dug out some beautiful linen that my grandmother Mollie had given me years ago and I started to sew. I made the pattern too which is exciting as I really want to have my own bag pattern. The pattern came from my own experience - I usually start the day with two or three things inside my bag and end the day with it exploding, so my bag needs to be big. With big bags I need pockets to hold keys and phone and I need to be able to see my belongings so I lined the bag with my fairies and love hearts.
What do you think? Simple practical and light. It made it through two flights and long drives to Lorne with a thumbs up from critical me. I like it!
