Another flower bag

[tracey]

Hi, just finished another flower bag, with a bit of 3D going on. I know it is a little 'cutesy' but I wanted to try different styles. I have decided to enjoy making different things to build up a variety of pieces to hopefully take along to craft fairs next year. It is lined, along with a lined patch pocket, both first attempts for me, and it has a sewn on snap fastener.  www.dropbox.com/s/lw9yny7nlpa8i3j/20161111_105842.jpg?dl=0

You made a very smart looking bag! The texture and colors are wonderful, and I like the professional addition of "bamboo" handle.

It's a beautiful design! Have you considered selling on Etsy? This bag must have taken you a lot of hours of painstaking work - I love the variegated buds and the orange flower.

Thank you so much Cathy. Yes the handle is lovely, real bamboo,(did not know you can buy plastic!), but no half measures, it would spoil it. Thank you very much too Lyn. I have had a peek at Etsy but I really do not have the stock yet. I am going to build it up at steady and enjoyable pace. I want to enjoy everything I make, which I definitely have so far. So I will decide what to do further down the line.

Great bag and good for you in enjoying the journey. That is the most important part and it always shows in your work.

Great handbag Tracey! Love the dimensional aspect of the flowers! You did a wonderful job for the first time.

Great bag, Tracey. I like 3D elements on it and the wooden handle.

It's not cutesy at all, in my humble opinion! Very elegant with the shades of color and the flower buds. 😍
