Curved Flat Bag with Some Shine

... and sew it seams that there is no end to the ways one can embellish a bag ...

This is NicoleM's Curved Flat Bag - stylish and simple in denim and ...
Angelina (Fusible) Film and Lamifix ..... this is fun ..... get some online from The Thread Studio in Perth....

The films are fusible -just cut and fuse - I popped a few little bits of fabric in between some of the layers, and then stitched them on with 2 embroidery variegated threads on the top of my machine. The colours in the Angelina Film range are wonderful .... and they reflect the light beautifully ....
Magnetic catches keep the whole thing together when required.... plenty of room inside....


I just hand stitched the flap to the lining on the inside - quite firmly - rather then stitching through all layers and having the stitching show on the right side - sew far sew good ....


Want to learn to make one???? If you live within kooee of me (Newcastle, Central Coast - a great day out for Sydney siders) check my website for my current teaching timetable ....
