urban messenger.

No, I did not get my machine back from the shop. My friend let me borrow her sewing machine so I didn't go completely crazy. Although, I I may be going slightly crazy over this cutie over this cutie of a messenger bag that I cranked out. I love this Echino fabric! I did not use a pattern, I totally winged this one. There are a couple of things that I will do differently when I make another, overall, I am thrilled with this one!



Linen lined!



Homemade patch!

Matches my house!
In other news, I am coming up on my 100th post! (this is no. 98) I am thinking something along the lines of a GIVEAWAY! I am not yet sure of what.....but it should be good! stay tuned...


~Happy Sewing!

It's so cute! I've never been a huge fan of that fabric, but now I love it! It just takes the right use for a fabric to have me fall in love. Great job!

So cute! I bought the motorcycle fabric and this would be the perfect bag for it. Or a small coin purse. I originally bought the fabric for a co-worker at work because he drives a vespa. Cool blog!
