A bag, but a special one...

I couldn't help myself and I made another Amelie bag.
Could you tell seeing this picture that there is something strange with this bag ?

If you would say it is a miniature, you would be right. I love to make miniatures so I just had to try and make a miniature bag.

The small bag is 35% from the original size and measures 4"x5" (10x 12.5 cm).

Here are the fabric pieces and the paper templates. When I saw how tiny are the templates I was in doubt I could sew the pieces...


The fabric I used is a stretch denim, heavy enough so that I did not use interfacing... It took me more than one hour to make it. The only difficult part was sewing the piping...

When I will be tired by making my usual stuff, I will try to make even a smaller version...
This could be my new addiction...I would love to have a collection of different sizes in different colors...


I wish you a sunny week ! Right now is snowing over here.

I love the flowers, are they crocus?

We are the opposite to you at the moment, hot and humid with a cyclone hovering.
