Introducing the new Moose bag.
Making this bag was really an adventure. It's my 1st time encounter on boxy/ travelers type bag. Honestly it's not that easy to sew. I broke 1 needle and my pin cushion is now adorned with misshapen pins :o Every single piece had to be slip stitched together before sewing it on the sewing machine. I only added thick interfacing to the gusset. Maybe next time I'm gonna add batting & thick interfacing to the front part too to make it more sturdy. Yes, I'm gonna make more of this type of bag. I'm embracing my fears....:P
When it's done I feel like I've accomplished something. I"VE MADE IT! Yeay :)
Here's some more pics of the bag...
I hope this little project of mine can inspire you people out there to repurpose, reuse & recycle. Just to show that you can make something beautiful & useful out of something that might end up in the dump site.
Have a nice day :)

Sue,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the compliment. If you look up close, it's not that grand la..somehow ada laa jerawat jugak :)
I thought of adding the sling but then at that time I don't have any D-ring & slider.
