Venus Handbag with vintage lace - Folksy

Shared by HandmadebyEdwina in the Fabric Crafts


Product Description:

One of my passions is vintage lace. This bag has been made using some vintage lace I purchased in 2011. To give the bag structure I started with some interfaced beige linen fabric, which complements the lace perfectly. The lace is then stitched to the linen. As you can see there are three horizontal bands of it. It is quite wide heavy-weight lace and both the back and front are covered. On the front there are a few cream beads which I hand stitched to the lace.
