Should I sell or should I keep ?
Mum found this amazing material for me, just £1.00 for approx 2 metres. Its a heavy fabric with red/maroon furry bits, the beige is grainy in texture. You can see I like material by texture and look, couldn't give you the name of it. Couldn't believe my luck, so I made a bag, just a simple one with a liner ( that's so the seems are not visable).
Its not quite finished as it needs a button and a button hole, then a quick whizz around the top edge to finish it off. But I am soo excited by it . . . . ( gosh I am also sad to be sooo sooo happy - get a life Sara !!)
It fits across the body so comfortably. . . I think I really made it for me . . . and although I have lots of material left ( this was going to be for cushion) I could make another bag . . . but that too I should really keep for the stall.
Am I mumbling on . . . .
So should I put it in the cupboard and use it for my stall on the green in the summer, or should I keep it ?
All thoughts welcomed.
Cheers
Sara
Keep it! It makes a change for sewing-istas to make something for themselves. When you wear it out you'll be a 'walking advert' for your work (keep a business card to hand for when people ask). ;)
ReplyDeleteKeep it. You love it and you did a great job sewing it. No one will ever appreciate it as much as you.
ReplyDeleteAww, why not keep it. A lot of love and care went into it.
ReplyDeleteOh, keep it! It's absolutely adorable! How many times do we (as sewers) keep what we make? :)
ReplyDeleteKeep it! Hats off to you for sewing...ugghh...no patience for it at all. This is lovely.
ReplyDeleteWhen a person loves something (and I love this too), you should either price it so high that no one would buy it, so you get to keep it anyway; or just wrap it up as a present and give it to YOURSELF because you are so lovely and talented, very deserving of a present. Love that pattern and fabric.
ReplyDeleteKeep it! It's too beautiful to get rid of.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot for your post! Love your blog - you have so many great ideas! And tha bag is beautiful... I'd only give it away to a person that I know would love it as much as you do.
