This is what I came up with. The entire bag, including the lining is made from the same material. Some sort of cotton mix, that is impossible to iron. As you can see. When I was done with the body of the bag, I thought it looked too plain, so I added a fabric yo-yo flower. To accessorize an accessory ;)
No, on this one I used my new tailor's chalk. Pink tailor's chalk. I marked the right side with really big X's. That's right, the RIGHT side. And then I ironed all the pieces about a zillion times during sewing, completely forgetting about the damn chalk.
It's now set in the fabric. Pale pink X's that are not visible from afar, but are sure damn visible if you look closely. Stupid, stupid, stupid. I tried brushing the fabric, tried plain water, and now I'm about to try washing it with fabric soap and stain remover. Hope to God that removes the marks.
I think it's safe to say I learned my lesson. Never again will I mark anything on the right side of the fabric.
No, the yo-yo is not the best thing.i love this bag, it is very cute!
ReplyDeleteKrasna torba! dupli yo-yo je zakon!
ReplyDeleteMaterijal mi se na prvi pogled pario kao tanka umjetna koža - ali vidim da pogriješih!
Bez brige - da vidiš kakve ja glupave greške radim nakon toliko godina šivanja! tko radi taj ... zna se!
Torba je preslatka! A o greškama neću ni da pričam, jer kad bih i o tome pisala, morala bih da se pokrijem ušima:)! No, čovek se uči dok je živ!
ReplyDeleteTako je, ko radi, taj i gresi !
ReplyDeleteA devojka se valjda nece buniti, poklonu se u zube ne gleda.
ovaj mi materijal ne izgleda dovoljno jak/cvrst/debeo za torbu...svidja mi se oblik...jesi li radila po nekom patternnu?
ReplyDelete@incoknito: Materijal i nije dovoljno čvrst za torbu, ali što ću kad je to cura izabrala. Podstava je ista, tako da je u biti dvoslojna torba. Nisam stavila flizelina, jer se samo zgužva kada preokrećem torbu na pravu stranu.
ReplyDeletePattern sam sama smislila, u biti sam kopirala ono što sam vidjela po netu.
