So last week I decided to make another Debbie Shore satchel bag, and i must say the more you make these the easier they are!
I made this particular one in a cotton canvas I bought a metre of each and paid around £6 a metre and this bag doesn't take a lot of fabric at all so i could probably make a couple more bags from this.
I used the Bolsal foam again as the wadding for the front and back of the bag, i love this stuff its more expensive at about 8 per half metre but this bag only takes a bit i've made about three of these bags out of that and a makeup bag so it is quite cost effective but that obviously depends on what bag you make and how big it is.
Here are some photos of the bag I made. I love the colours of this one it is muted but still has that bit of colour. I didn't use an adjustable strap for this one as I didn't have a slider available and couldn't wait to make it.

Fabric shopping
On Tuesday night I did a bit of fabric shopping at oh sew sweet shop in Mapplewell I went in for some fat quarters with no projects in mind but so I had some fabric in when I had a project to make. I got 6 fat quarters and some fabric for a bag I decided to make so that's what the linen is for and the green spot is going to be my lining.
I will be blogging about what I make with these fabrics so you can see them transformed into projects.
