I love to buy fabrics. Most of the times I’m happy just getting lost in the shop and imaginig what would I do with this or that. Unfortunately I can’t afford (by time and money) all the fabrics I would like but always, the fabrics I choose have the same chararteristics and that’s what we’re going to see now to help get the best fabrics to make your own accessories.

Normally and, leaving apart aesthetic aspects, I have a particular preference for non fray fabrics.

One of the most common non fray fabric is faux leather (also known as synthetic teather). You’ll find it in a several finishes (plain, matt, rough, metallic, high bright, pretending animal skin, …), thicknesses and quality but what you have to keep always in mind is its composition.

I’m thrilled because my Etsy shop is finally open! There you can find PDF patterns to make your own bags and accessories. Each file contents a real size pattern and a full step by step tutorial. You can download it at the moment so you’ll be able to start right now!

The very first items availables are a small animal bags collection (four in total) designed at first as a children bags but convertible also for adults if you make the pattern sheets equally biggers (in a print shop, for example).

You can sew them by hand or with sewing machine, they’re super easy (really!) and you won’t need too many materials. So it’s the perfect project if you have learned sewing just a few time ago. Come on! I’ll love to see the results!!
