Show and Tell Tuesday





 
It's Tuesday...and time once again to show and tell.
 
One of my friends came to me and said "I have this bag I love and it's coming apart, can you make me one to replace it?" 
Oh, I love a challenge!
 
So I set to work right away and made a prototype. 
 

 
I started by cutting out the pieces using 'painter's drop cloth' from the hardware store.  It's under $2 a yard so I don't mind if I make a mistake vs. using a fabric that cost me $14 a yard.
 
I stamped on the fabric using rubber stamps and a Fabrico stamp pad...heat set the ink with an iron.
 
I was soon on my way to a new bag.  I'm thrilled with how it turned out and can't wait to show my friend.
 
Happy Sewing!...janaé
