Through a series of events too complex and detailed to list, I ended up at a flea market this past Saturday. I brought a handful of bags and hats that I had made and sat in the drizzle for about 4 hours. I sold one item and finally called it a day.
I'm going to call it a learning experience, since I'd rather not admit that I wasted a Saturday.
I did have fun making the bags, though! Most of the bags were made with Premier Prints outer fabric and some fun cotton interior prints.
This one has a Joel Dewberry lining that I adore.
See the deer?
This one is my favorite. Since it didn't sell, it's now my new library bag.
Isn't this little clutch just the cutest? It's from
this tutorial. Don't let the size fool you, though. It took me twice as long as the full size bags!
Same fabric as my currect favorite bag. I love it so much. Mmmmm, green!
Another shoulder bag. Lined with Nicey Jane. Another fabric line I can't ever get enough of.
I bought this material ages ago at Hancock to make draperies for my living room. Then I changed my mind. (What? You can't change your mind when after you buy 4 yards of expensive Waverly fabic? Shut up.) I think it works pretty well as a bag though - this one would be perfect for fall.
This one went to the beach with me on Memorial Day. Yes Siree. Lined in Nicey Jane...again.
There's a couple more that I forgot to take pictures of, but you can sort of see them in the first picture of my table, I really, really love the orange one too.
Just call me the bag lady.
Up next...a doll quilt and pillow for Madeline's baby. Got to get some practice in before I get started on the real deal!
