Another Indian gem

I think it's quite obvious from looking at my Etsy store that I like a bit of colour! This recent addition is no exception, using a combination of magenta pinks and turquoise shades combined to make a stunning clutch. The middle panel is made from Indian block printed cotton, the outer panels are made from a Japanese obi fabric, and the turquoise lace trim is French. I decided to use a deep turquoise cotton lining to compliment the trim.

You can find it in my store here.

Fave Fabric Friday

I couldn't decide on one fabric this week, but have chosen a bunch that I bought in India. I'm embarrassed to say I bought them almost a year ago, but haven't done anything with them yet. I have often looked at them and had a play, but they were then put away again without being used. It's now a new year and I have been getting creative, combining the Indian fabrics with coloured lace and vibrant linings. I will hopefully have some juicy new clutch bags to show soon!

Fave Fabric Friday

This Fridays's favourite fabric is a piece that I screen printed myself a while ago onto a cream organic cotton. The image is a simple, black, stylised floral and it has an Indian woodblock feel to it. I am thinking of making it up into a clutch bag, using a vibrant block printed cotton that I bought in India as a flash of colour for the lining.
