For mother's day, I have made a few things for my amazing mom. Since we are more than 8000 miles apart, I wanted her to have something I create for her to show off to her friends lol
So I made a cute handbag that is very light weight and with lots of pockets for her stuff.
all the fabrics cut out for the handbag
embroidered this for the front pocket
sewing front card pocket to handbag front
back pocket
inside of the bag, big pocket is for mom's big wallet, smaller is for her phone, the smaller pocket was also embroidered
front of the bag is sewn into two big pockets.
sewing boxed corners
sewing zipper
recessed zipper done
added a button on one of the front pockets
after adding the handles....
bag done

Hi Mandy! What a GREAT bag! Did you make up the pattern or use a published one. I love the details... hope mommie noticed! ;)
ReplyDeleteTeri, i made it up. i was gonna follow a pattern, but my mom kept wanting this and that on the bag, so i just winged it! LOL Thank you for the compliment!
ReplyDeleteoh mommy did notice, she was sooo proud. she said her friends all loved it and requested one for themselves lol and the best part is that it is very very very light, perfect for a mom
ReplyDeleteA beautiful bag!!! I bet your Mom loved it.
ReplyDeletethank you!!! she did except she didnt like the handles coz she cant put it on her shoulder! so i actually took the handles out and added straps when she came to visit me last year.
