Happy Wednesday everyone!
On Monday I showed you the first of several bags I decided to give a second life to by simultaneously clearing out some of my fabric stash while practicing my sewing skills at the same time this Summer. :)
Today, I am so excited to show you the second bag I redid just by sewing on another retro napkin that I got at a garage sale and a scrap of pug doll fabric from my stash!
Just like the inside of the first one, I added a couple of internal pockets by sewing on a change purse I purchased at Quit-A-Fair a few years ago and a vintage appliqued tea towel that I got on Ebay ages ago! :)
The final touch was to add a row of orange pom pom trim to the front edge!
Ta Da!
The two bags are pretty similar in style, but I like how they match each other without being exactly the same.
Next week I will show you the last two bags I redid.
I am so proud of myself because I even added a zipper to one of them which I never thought I could do!
Thank goodness for the internet and all of its wonderful resources! I just googled how to sew in a zipper and ...
Voila... I found this tutorial that showed me that even I could do this! :)
What new things have you learned to do this Summer?
Please leave me a note and let me know!
I cannot wait to hear all about them!
