This fun handbag brings together three pre-loved textiles, giving each a new purpose in a one-of-a-kind design.

The main body is made from upcycled denim from a skirt, paired with red gingham straps and ruffles repurposed from an apron. Inside, a vintage floral fabric rescued from a lady's de-stash adds a colourful finishing touch.

The Details

Outside:

• The main body of the bag is made from repurposed denim from a pre-loved skirt.
• The denim is reinforced with Pellon SF101 woven fusible interfacing for added strength.
• Red gingham fabric, rescued from an apron, has been given a new life as the bag's two straps and decorative ruffles. The gingham ruffles run along each side seam.
• The bag closes securely with a golden magnetic snap.

Inside:

• The lining is made from vintage fabric sourced from a fabric de-stash of a once avid sewer. It features a beige background with a floral pattern in red, green, orange, pink and blue.

Please Note

Every FFAQ Handmade item is individually designed and sewn by me. While I take great care to ensure consistency, slight variations in dimensions, pattern placement and finish are part of the handmade process and make each piece unique.

Care

Spot clean or gently hand wash as required. Line dry in the shade. Warm iron if required, avoiding the magnetic snap and other hardware.
