Vintage fabric tote - Folksy

Shared by HandmadebyEdwina in the Fabric Crafts


Product Description:

This tote/shopper has been made from 100% cotton fabric. The vintage fabric was designed by Laura Ashley and the date is 1978. I have teamed it up with some terracotta faux suede fabric for the base of the bag. I have machined stitched some vintage braid along the bottom of the tote and also some white lace. This embellishment is only on the front of the tote.

Inside the tote/shopper I have used a printed cotton fabric that has a yellow background and butterflies printed on it for the lining. There is a large internal zipped pocket with a yellow zip and there is a magnetic clasp closure. The tote has been interfaced to give it structure. The tote/shopper has self fabric straps made from the faux suede, and they will fit comfortably over the shoulder.
