another project from sewing class finished! after the apron, we had to make a handbag. i chose a tapestry kind of fabric, it kind of looks vintage but it is new!

ta-dah!

a side detail with cute metalic blue-ish buttons, matching with the zippers.

and a little bag on the inside. since i had no lining, we attached the little bag (which was the excercise for learning how to put a zipper in) with two little straps. the inside isn't really that pretty, but ah well!


i also went on a little shopping spree in january, looking for sales and discounts. this is what i found!
from left to right: a very cute blue/black cotton fabric (i'm probably making a little summer dress or summer skirt out of it); some fabric my grandma gave me; a very cheap leftover of which i couldn't figure out if i found it really ugly or really pretty so i bought it anyway; probably the cutest flowery fabric i ever came across and last but not least purple tapestry fabric that i totally fell in love with! happy happy!


i also bought a whole bunch of Gutermann sewing thread at RommelAnt for only 1,25 euros (!) per piece and a LOT of buttons at Veritas for 5 euros.

  5. die knopen lagen in een grote bak met hun "afdankertjes", en je mocht een frietzakje vullen voor 5 euro! je kon ook gewoon schepen, maar ik heb natuurlijk zorgvuldig de mooiste eruit gekozen hihi. :)
