My first hand sewn bag

It was raining full day here and the weather is very chill. We had white rice with rasam and egg omelet for lunch yesterday, it is a very good combination. Though it may not feel special, we can give it a try, once in a while.

Ok, now coming to my first bag, I started sewing bags in the year 2016. At that time, there was no sewing machine. I used to hand stitch the bags and purses.

This is my first hand sewn bag. The cloth is felt. I used a saree border for piping and the handle. 

Seven years gone, but still the passion for stitching bags continues.

Hope you all can view the inside of the bag clearly. It has one main compartment, seperate pocket for mobile, a zip pocket & a small open pocket.

This image shows us the zip stitched between the flap and the main pocket of the bag.

A closer view of the small open pocket decorated with lace and blanket stitch embroidery.

I have used press buttons to attach the handles.

I am stitching now an organizer made from scrap fabrics, which I will update soon.

By the time, I am uploading this blog, the rain has stopped but the weather is still chill. Bye.
