Sew Mama Sew Bag Month

This is my entry for the Sew Mama Sew Bag Competition in the shoulder bag category. I got this Sesame Street fabric from Ebay. It is a vintage sheet and as soon as I received it I loved it. The colours are really vibrant and I immediately thought of using some of it to make a bag. I wasn't sure of the style at the time but I was playing around with an idea for something else and then thought the shape would make a good bag so decided to give it a try. I lined the bag with a bright yellow polka dot fabric and put a pocket and a magnetic clip in it. This bag may find it's way onto my Wahmania store so stay tuned.

Oh I love the SS print. I jsut picked up some old SS book for free from the library - the binding is no good so though of turning the pages into some cards and paper! Love the bag - great design - should sell well!

That fabric is perfect for a dress I am trying to make. :) If you don't mind my asking, where did you find it?
