My recent handmade items



I have made a purse and a pouch so far, one is the black purse which I started sewing and added the designs along the way through. This black cotton fabric came from Thailand, my mum bought it for her dress and she gave me the leftover pieces.
I like the texture of the fabric, I sewn the tiny buttons to bright the colours up and used the linen bias to cover the zipper part.

I sewn the exterior purse first and then the same for the lining, I added a half inches width of the gusset to make the room for the purse.  At the top part, I finished off with the bias fabric tape and sewn the zipper on. I love to sew my purses this way,  I used a covered button to the end of zipper.

size is 5''  x  4 ''  x 0.50 ''
