Week 6 of Whip up

whipup

Week 6 And I decided to make something for this contest. This is the Geisha Bag: I created a foundation pattern out of a canvas fabric and then I pieced the fabric on it using the foundation method of quilting. I then put decorative machine stitches on each seam line. I also added beads and buttons as a detail to the front top of the bag.

The ribbon handle was attached with ribbon tabs and D-rings, and lobster clasps.

This bag was very fun to make and I really enjoyed the process.

The buttons that are on the bag are the ones that I recieved in the button swap on Swap-Bot
