The reversible virus really caught on to me, reversible tote bag wise I mean. In Brussels I caught this beautiful fabric from Anna Maria Horner, I really think it's stunning. And all of a sudden I had an idea for a great and practical lining for this bag. And there was also a lucky reciever: a friend who recently gave me some gorgious fabrics from Japan.
Ze wilde eigenlijk een hoesje voor haar kindle. Tuurlijk! Daarvoor gebruikte ik een leuk stofje van Michael Miller en een rood-wit polkadot stofje.
But what she really wanted was a kindle case. But of course! I used a Michael Miller fabric for the outside and a happy red and white polka dot fabric for the lining.
Very cute, is it not?
Voor de binnenkant (die je natuurlijk ook gewoon aan de buitenkant kunt gebruiken!) ging ik helemaal los. Ik kocht rode biais band voor de zak (waar de kindle hoes dan weer in past) en gebruikte deze ook voor de banden. Zo passen deze ook bij het Anna Maria Horner stofje. Win win!
For the lining (but this can of course also be the outside, gotta love the flexibility there) I want mad with biais tape. I bought some red biais for the pocket (which holds the kindle case quite well) and also used the tape for the straps. Really goes with the Anna Maria Horner fabric. Swing when you're winning!
En de kers op de taart: mijn vriendin was er heel erg blij mee!
And for that cherry on the cake: my friend was really happy with her presents!
Happy weekend everyone!!

BeantwoordenVerwijderenWie zou daar nu niet blij mee zijn. Zo mooi. Die stof is schitterend.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI just LOVE your color combinations! I loved the first fabric and then when I saw the Anna Marie Horner fabric, I loved that too! I wonder if I can get that here. It looks like a dark linen....yum! Beautifully natural. The little case is adorable. You're such a good seamstress. I sewed years ago when my children were little but haven't really sewed for years until I retired and now I am picking it up again and loving it! Thanks for the motivation! Have a great weekend!
