I bought this fabric at the Malting's just because I thought it was really pretty. I had nothing that went with it in my stash but it actually turned out really useful.
I needed a new project and thought this one, an adapted version of the shopper bag from the Cath Kidston book Sew! would work well for me.
I really wanted a new make up bag as I have three small ones but they don't fit all my favourite things in just one to take on holiday with me. (Really annoying)
Now I have one that is the perfect size for all my bits and bobs with no fuss. So proud of this!
I am now planning my next quilt project. This will of course be made from the mermaid fabric but it's a tricky one to decipher because of how detailed the fabric with the mermaids is and it needs to be large to appreciate the detail of it.
I'll post up a sketch as soon as I have it worked out so that I can get your opinions.
I love the fabric (don't remember seeing that at the Maltings!!) Nice job with the make up bag.
