I'm not sure how long it's taken me to finish this bag, but I know I've had these freeform pieces for at least 5 or 6 years. They were going to be part of a sweater, but I decided that it was just a bit much for a garment. Recently, Agent Gray helped me decide to turn them into a bag.
Suddenly, yesterday became The Day That The Bag Would Be Finished. And it is. Like always when something is finally done, I wonder why I didn't just do it sooner.
The timing is good, though, because I'll get to take it as a sample for the freeform class I'm teaching tomorrow night at Cozy.
Particulars: Freeform is from cottons and acrylics, many of them novelties and variegated. The bag is ready made denim found at Michael's.
Pretty and cool! And nice use of Randy's pickets!
ReplyDeleteCOOL! it's fabulous!!! i look forward to seeing it in person :)
ReplyDeletedo you also have one of those mesh bag forms? i have one to (someday) do some prudence thingies and embellish.
Love that bag -- gorgeous! My friend Robin took your class -- looking forward to reading about her experiences. I'll bet it was a blast. I'd love to learn how to do that someday, but it appears to involve a lot of techniques (crochet, mitered squares, etc.) that I haven't yet learned.
ReplyDeleteSo Pretty!!!! I also want to see it in person :)
