Toys in the Attic


My latest creation, this is heavy woven Teddy Bear fabric, and it makes a very cute bag. In the photo on the left it looks a bit smaller than the other bags I have made, because I brought the sides in a little, to be closer to the handles.  I bought this fabric about 15 years ago, with a couple of similar pieces. I haven't been able to find anything like it since then.

Important to note: It's lined, and will have a velcro 'snap' closure. I will make more of these, using all the fabric that I have available to me. I plan to make several different styles, in each of the three fabrics I have here, some a bit bigger, some with longer handles, some maybe a bit squarer. Lots more coming up, this is just the beginning! I'm calling it Toys In the Attic, because the other pieces are an antique doll print and a multiple cat print. Stay tuned to see where I go with this!
