‘How “mushroom” do you need in a bag?!”

This handmade and designed shopping bag was made from green linen and cotton canvas for the main structure. Each little piece of felt has been hand appliquéd to create the overall picture on the front. On the rear of the bag is also a picture of a toadstool/mushroom which I hand embroidered and then stuffed slightly to make it three dimensional. I hand quilted, with a combination of echo and ditch quilting. Inside there is one of my multi-pocket features, a double pocket – one with a zip, and a coordinating lining of green gingham. Finally I finished off the bag with some colourful old buttons!

I reckon there is as “mushroom” as you need in this bag for a good shopping trip!!!

Bright and Breezy Boats

I designed and made this handy shopping bag using lots of bright cotton to contrast vividly, giving it, I think, a very fresh spring or summery feel. Inside it has a multi pocket, one of which has a zip. With small hand applique boat design in coordinating fabric and a couple of complementary buttons not only add decoration but also are stitched through to give extra security to the handles. Designed to brighten up any shopping trip or day at the beach!
