Thread Filled Thursdays

Hey lovelies! I’m back, and I’ve worked on a couple of things over the past few weeks of NOT posting anything sewing related. I’m such a poor keeper of “themes” on this blog, that it’s pitiful. I choose to blame the kids. Because it’s my right.

This bag is the second that I’ve made, and I think that I love it more than the first. The photographer is a college friend of mine who became a photographer after a very emotional event in her life. She gave me a color scheme to work with and trusted the process (even though it was long.) I’m learning that while I love making gorgeous things, I will never be able to really mass produce larger objects because I want to peg the fabric for each individual.  The geometric shape gives it a pretty good edge and the hot pink gives it that “fun” pop of color.  Isn’t this lining ingenious? She’ll never, ever misplace her bag, and no one will be able to claim it! She has a camera strap in matching fabrics, minus the camera print fabric. 
I also made another Cosmo Bag! I’m getting pretty good at getting them cut out and sewn up in one afternoon or evening. This client makes hair accessories for a living, and needed something to carry her items to, for craft fairs. I guessed on the lining and it turns out that she’s in love with butterflies!  So, that’s it. To all of my #sewists, what have you been up to lately?
