I love this material when I first spotted it at Kamdar. Used less than half a meter with a little bit of canvas for the lining too. This Sunday tote is knotted at the handles, so you have to assemble the body first and sew the handles last.
Took apart three antique silk roses and embellished them with vintage white buttons. Ribbons are from Shen-ni's birthday gift to me - they must be expensive, you won't find any velvet ricracs here! The Flower ornament is detachable.
A shot of the inside. I used some of Margaret's laces she gave me with the needlebook. I also made a cardboard base so the bag will be sturdy and these bags don't look nice wonky.
Love these buttons. They're actually cherry blossoms. I wonder if I can dye these buttons?
