Christi (pt 3 - Complete!)

Hey there! Just sharing some images of Christi's finished shoulder bag!! It's a tad bigger than we originally planned, but the fabric was a bit pricey. So I figured you may as well get your moneys worth!

I know, I'm so thoughtful... :)

Lots of images below!!

Above: Straps & pocket are sewn. After that, I pinned everything together to start sewing the rest!

This is the inside of the bag. The bottom panel & pocket are attached to the main bag. Pretty interior, right?

Voila! Fini! N'est-ce pas mignon?

Yes, I'm french all of the sudden.

Meaning: There! Finished! Isn't this cute? :)

Flat view of the bag!

An image to showthe bottom panel of the bag.

My signature label, of course.. ;)

Interior! The fabric of this bag is actually just one fabric. Most quilted fabrics have an "exterior" & and "interior", but they are attached. Because of this, to prevent ugly-looking seams on the inside of the bag, I used black stain ribbon to make the seam. At first, I was a little worried about how it would look. But after I did it, it actually looks really nice!! A ton better than if I just left it as-is.

Closer look. You can see the ribbon along the bottom panel here.

Bag Details:
10" in length x 14 7/8" in width x 4.5" in width (taken from bottom panel)
Straps (2): 28.5" in length x 1" in width
Inside pocket: 5.25" in length x 8" in width
No enclosure for this bag.

Yay!! Happy to finally be done! & I'm sure Christi is too! :) Hope you enjoyed this bag! There are many more to come!

Next, on to my cousins bag!

Have a great weekend!
