Handbag Crazy

I can't help myself.....

I just keep on sewing handbags.....

This one was in my creative space last week....

Exactly the same as the other one, but this time, with a brown strap. I really like the shadows in this photo, taken in the early morning light.

Maybe I'll focus on making something else this week.

    If I was making bags as nice as yours I wouldn't stop either. I love the orange one!

    No need to help yourself (somehow, this looks weirder written down than said in my head). Your bags look lovely!
