.... is a little bit dreary todayAfter a few days of sunny mornings, today I woke up to hear rain on my tin roof (which of course made me want to curl up and go straight back to sleep).
A half finished handbag next to the sewing machine - exactly where I left it lastnight.
Made using a vintage kitchen curtain from the oppy, and some cotton drill for an adjustable strap (with antique brass oblong rings and tri-glide).
I'm hoping to finish it off today some time.
The home of creativity.
At least the colours you are working with are bright and sunny, even if the day is not.
ReplyDeleteCute bag, the colors remind me of fall :) I hope tomorrow is bright and sunny for you!
ReplyDeleteI love your bobbin holder! So cute :o)
ReplyDeleteLooking good! I love orange!
ReplyDeleteoh! I love that orange handbag!!
ReplyDeleteI would love to find some vintage kitchen curtains for making a dress, or skirt, i think =)
I think my mum had kitchen curtains like that once. :) Great sunny colours.
ReplyDeleteWe really could do with a drop of rain, send it up here! :)
I am usually very much an anti-orange kinda gal, but this fabric really jumps at me, looks very warming.
ReplyDeleteLOVE the look of that handbag! I really, really do!!
ReplyDeleteWow, completely love the bag - that material is a great find!
ReplyDeleteMmm, curling up under the covers with the rain on the roof - bliss! Especially if we don't HAVE to be anywhere else! Looks like the sun has broken through again now though - enjoy!
ReplyDeleteYes...the rain was a bit of downer today. Still...you've managed classic Cam brightness. xx
ReplyDeleteDon't let the dreary outsides into your creative space. Look around at the brightness you are creating. I hope this late afternoon sunshine has helped lift your spirit.
ReplyDeleteLooks to be bursting with colour to me! Lovely bag :)
ReplyDeleteoh your WIP bag is made of such FAB fabric...gorgeous! happy sewing!
ReplyDeleteOh wow can't wait to see it finished, looks wonderful!
ReplyDeletelove that fabric...I was thinking how "sunny" your space was looking before I read yr post......and love tahiti from yesterday...your blog is one creative space at the mo.
ReplyDeleteyour space looks fantastic. fabulous colours.
ReplyDeletevery lovely looking bag :D I love that bobbin holder thing, need to find something like that, would be perfect :)
ReplyDeleteOh wow! I am in love with that handbag! I've just found a vintage bedspread and you're giving me ideas about what to do with it! :) K
ReplyDeleteCool fabric. I love refashioned/repurposed fabric - it makes me very happy! I know what you mean about the weather this morning too - if it wasn't for a very persistent 2.5 year old, I may have not got up until lunchtime!
ReplyDeleteOoh rain on a tin roof... the covers are over my head at the mere suggestion... blissful!
ReplyDeleteWhat a glam bag!!
How about that? I have an almost identical curtain in "the green colour-way". It looks fabulous as a bag. And I'd recognise those tri-glides anywhere!
ReplyDeleteRain on a tin roof is my favourite sound! Hope the bright fabric brightened the day for you!
ReplyDeleteAfter seeing some of your other recent work I am so jealous. They all look wonderful! Wish I was going to be in Melbourne!
ReplyDeletecool handbag, love the fabric. what a great op shop find
