September Finishes #02: Quilted Tote Bag

This post is part of the 2013 FAL

Hi Everyone!!

Yes! I finished another bag in September.  This is not a new sewing project. I've started this project in 2011 when I joined the Stitch and Quilt Along hosted by Jennie over at Clover and Violet. I've accidently make mistake when cutting the fabrics. I save all the small pieces that I've wrongly cut for future projects.... and here it is a tote bag.


   I used the same embroidery design from the sew along for the outside pocket.
 
 

 It comes with a zipper closure and
  

with a pocket at the inside of the bag.
 
 
 
 
 I still have another one which is a work in progress but in different colors and design for the outside pocket. Till then...
Happy Sewing to all!!

Market Tote : Stitch & Quilt Along

Hi everyone!!

I choose to sew the Market Tote that I participated at Clover and Violet for the FNSI.  Basically the Quilt Along is called "the Ruby Market Tote" since it used Ruby fabric line. I drop  'the Ruby'  name due to my  market tote used different fabric line... For my market tote I used Japanese cotton fabric....and this is the result...


Front of the bag with embroidered pocket.


and this is how the back of the bag looks like.


It also can be fold and easy to carry since you can just roll and tie it up. For those who interested to sew this may click HERE for the details.

It has been a productive week for me and wish for you too.

Happy sewing!!

Tuition Bag ...

Adam, my younger son has been asking
 for ages for a tuition bag. 
 He would like to have a tote bag
with zipper to be used when attending his afternoon class.
His school bag is just too big for him...
Basically sewing a bag does not take so much time ...
just sometime there are too many things
in my head that makes me tend to forget ...

And today,I come out with this tuition bag for him
with a pocket in the inside.
This bag was made using stash fabric.


 He insist to have 'tuition bag' wording stitch on it...

and since there is a ship...
he also asked to embelish it with a yoyo, as a sun ...

And this is how the completed bag looks like!
He was so happy  with the result.
 
To him everything was
just perfect as how he wants it to be...
and here is Adam, showing off his new bag!!

 Happy Sewing !!!

Quilted Drawstring Tote Bag

This week I've been busy sewing this drawstring tote bag....
quilted drawstring tote bag to be exact.


I'm using stash fabric that available in my collection ...
This time round I choose green and brown color combination.
The size of the bag is about 16"x 14"
The length of the handle is about 20"



 This will be my 1st quilted drawstring tote bag that I've sew.
At the end of the string I handsew with crocheted flower
with beads and sequin...


I also sew at the outside of the bag with pink flower
 applique to make it more outstanding and interesting...
which I feel without it make the bag look dull.



 The inside comes with a holder to be used to hang keys...
especially car keys.
It will be more convenient to have it separate from
other items in the bag.




Basically I don't follow any specific bag pattern.
So I can claim this bag is my own pattern...



Happy Sewing !!

Patchwork Tote Bag

This is my latest work during the weekend.  A patchwork tote bag for myself... Originally the pattern was from Our Cozy Nest   The different between the original pattern was mine sewn without batting and using ribbon in replace of fabric as the tie on front(which  I've omitted too..) 
At the same time, I also give a try to sew a patchwork business card holder from the same fabric.  I am very much love it when my work completed...and of course this is also for my own use. Sewing this business card holder is really easy.  Maybe I shall share the tutorial with you in one of this day.

Tote bag

Tote bags for my children.
All were made using the fabric from my stash collection.
All the bags come with a lining which help the fabric from stretching.
I made my children to choose the color of the fabric and they also do the wording
that they want to be sewn at the bag.
 And I choose the fabric for the wording to
match with the bag. Most of the alphabet I handsew using the cotton fabric.
  The result of my creations ... as you can see in the above photos.
