Liberty Cat Bag

by

Julie from the studio has made this cute Liberty Cat Bag for her daughter’s cat Coco.  My cat Twig is modelling it here! Julie has used a fabulous Tana Lawn print called Willoughby Mews C but there are two other lovely colour ways of this print too – a vintage pale yellow and blue.  The lining uses Liberty Tana Lawn Stone T plain fabric which I love. Willoughby Mews is from the “From London With Love’ collection and is based on a favourite cat that has raided it’s owners accessories cupboard.   It’s such a fun print. Julie said ” …

Strawberry Thief Knot Bag

by

The lovely Dawn from the studio has made this Strawberry Thief Knot Bag to match her gorgeous UGG boots.  She has used the colourway  Strawberry Thief L.   I asked Dawn about the sewing project.  “I really liked the look of Alice’s knot bag pattern and it was easy to decide on the fabric.  Strawberry Thief L matches my Ugg boots and a little scarf I made a few months ago! I lined the bag in plain Tana Lawn in black which was a practical choice. I just made a couple of tweaks to the pattern by adding a little …

Beautiful Liberty Patchwork Bag

by

This Beautiful Liberty Patchwork Bag has been made by Dawn from the studio.  Dawn is in a sewing group and is always arriving at the studio with another beautiful Liberty item.  It’s got red Jelly handles by Lecien and is made using 2.5 inch Liberty squares. The deep red binding and red handles look great with the random Liberty squares.  Many of us have a spare stash of Liberty lurking in our fabric cupboard.  Mine is literally huge as I can’t bear to part with one off or vintage pieces.  Dawn has put together pinks and reds to give this …

Liberty patchwork Anna Bag

by

Sarah from the studio has made this really pretty Liberty patchwork Anna Bag from my range of exclusive Liberty fabrics.  It’s simply lovely.  It brings together two of my favourite things – putting colours together and making bags. The pattern for this bag was inspired by my friend Anna who a couple of years ago made a quilt for her daughter from hand pieced Liberty hexagons.  I’m normally too impatient to hand sew, but I’ve always liked the portability of crafts like knitting.  So I devised this partially-portable sewing project as a way to reconnect with making by hand.  It’s a …
