Bag for spring

Tuesday, April 27, 2010

My friend, A. has a bag. It is not a very nice one, but a simple 'free give away bag of a company'. But the pattern was really interesting for me so I started to think about it.
I designed a Celtic bag. For the handle I used the simple IKEA fabric (black and green). I used a hand sewing technique for the pattern so it took a while (long long time it was). So finally i throw it in a box when I finished the Celtic pattern.
This year before spring came (the official spring of course as the real one is still on its way) I decided to have my Celtic bag so I finished it. I made the pattern (12 pieces I think) and found this Celtic shamrock pattern which I sewed with the 'free style quilting' programme of my machine. (The bottom of the bag has a different Celtic pattern....just for fun!)
And now I wear my new bag happily. My student liked it very much which made me so proud. Do you like it as well?

This is the front of the bag with 2 zips.


And this is the back with the 'old' handle and the mobile pocket on it.

Wow! I am very impressed. You are very talented. :)

P.S. My husband is of Hungarian descent - both his parents were Hungarian but my husband was born in Canada. We visited Hungary for the first time in 2006. We think it is a beautiful country.
