I am in a bag moon at the moment (obviously my beret moon wasn’t a great success so I decided to change… for now). Bellow is my first try, a small black bag in cotton. I am not convince with the shape but it is the first time I  sew a zipper and I must say I am quite proud of it!

 Recto is a tribute to the mythical movie ”The endless summer”

  

Verso

 Fabric = Black heavy cotton from Spotlight – Paint= Pebeo Secalor Opaque (Perle Moire)

Next on the plan, a large travel bag from a book I borrowed at the library “Make your own handbag” as well as one inspired by Bo (she had the kindness to take the time to send me a sketch of this beautiful red bag she made)

In white…

A other trousers – white this time, ideal for summer!

 It is still based on my Simplicity pattern.

 I just changed the waistband shape and let out the legs.

 

Pattern = Simplicity (same as usual!) – Fabric = White cotton from Spotlight – Model = Christine

Encore un autre pantalon, blanc cette fois (pour l’ete!) toujours realise avec le meme patron Simplicity (vous l’aurez remarque, quand j’aime bien un patron, je le ressors a toutes les sauces!). Ce patron est un bonheur a coudre, facile et rapide, ce pantalon a ete cousu en moins de 2H. Zzzzou!

I tried a different shape of sarouel this time.

P1000419

This one is copied inspired of a sarouel my friend Natalie brought from India and that I stilled borrowed for a few months days.

P1000420

It is a really simple shape and it is perfect for yoga.

 P1000421

I made this first one for a friend Christmas gift.
