Holidays over and back to bag making, with another VW themed bag

Back from my holiday suitably refreshed and raring to go. We had a fabulous time at the Holiday Village in Egypt.

Back to work and back to bag orders. I had a bespoke order to make, slightly different in that the customer wanted to supply her own fabric.  This bag is made from black denim and VW camper van fabric. I decided that I would like to add a padded phone pocket inside the bag, incorporate a patch pocket and a front insert pocket into the design.

The customer wanted the bag slightly longer and not as wide as my normal messenger bags, so I made a new pattern to add to my growing collection.  Here is the finished design.

Memory bags

I was watching a program last week where they used clothing belonging to peoples loved ones to make memory quilts. It got me thinking, wouldn't it be nice to have a bag that also allowed you to carry memories round with you. The shirt your husband wants to get rid of but you love, your son or daughters toddler clothes. make use of the garments different elements to make a truly unique item.

What do you think? Would you like to receive this as a gift?
