Hooray! A brief hiatus in the current postal strike was marked by the arrival of two parcels of fabric all the way from America! One is from Superbuzzy, and the other from Cia's Palette. Each contains twelve half-yards of fabric, to be made into tote bags.
Here are the packages, just waiting to be popped open:
These fabrics have already been claimed by eager friends:
And these are fabrics that I've chosen, which are up for grabs if you see one that you like!
| State Fair | |
| London map canvas | Sweet Squirrels |
| Happy Bees | Graphic Leaves |
| Horses | Mini Panda |
| Tadpoles in jars | Birdcages |
| Surfin' Pareo | Robot March |
| VW camper vans | Little Ladybirds |
| Kitty Alphabet | Day of the Dead skulls |
A couple of these are taken, destined to be Christmas gifts, and one or two might see their way into the bodice of a dress, if they're not snapped up for bags straight away.
If anybody would like to lay claim to any of these fabrics, the resulting tote bags will cost £15, including p&p within the UK.
- The bags will measure approximately 10" x 12", which is more than big enough to fit A4.
- The handles will measure approximately 21", which is long enough to go over the shoulder, or to be carried in the hand without dragging on the floor. Or, you can have one long handle, which measures approximatly 44".
- The bags are all fully lined in a matching or contrasting plain fabric. (Except for the London print canvas, which doesn't need lining.)
Work on the tote bags will start next week!
