Description

My version of the fabulously easy Estelle handbag, this is my first bag and I love it! I made the top band bigger which made the join of the lining & outer a bit bulky, but you live and you learn!

Material Notes

Used black drill reinforced with interfacing (which turned out to be too stiff), Japanese, Russian doll fabric. Red wine bias binding.

    Thanks for the comments ladies, yes, most of it was seamed on the overlocker so I didn’t follow the order of the original instructions. I love the fabric too – I’m so glad I found a good project to use it on.

    Thats lovely, I too love the fabric and wondered if you had any left what will you use it on ? I expect your mum would love a bag like that !!! I cannot see from the pics but did you finish your seams on the overlocker ?
