Recycled Sewing

I’ve been making these pouches for years from all my scrap fabric.   I have a huge ten gallon grab bag full of beautiful sewing remenants waiting for a project.  This project is fast and easy to make.  You can find several of these pouches in my etsy shop.

 

A fellow Sacramentan recycles vintage hand bags, luggage and shoes by adding handpainted motifs to her items.  You can find Roundtrip on etsy.  Making something plain and old into something new and hip rocks!

This messenger bag has great colors.  I love that w3bch1ck protected the burlap part with clear vinyl.
