Spring Sewing Inspiration!

It has felt like a long winter here in Wisconsin, and I'm excited for spring sewing! I've been busying sewing bags to inspire you this season.

Pictured above is my first floral bag of the year! I made the Charade Crossbody Bag with Navy Cork Fabric and Petally Splendid fabric from Art Gallery Fabrics. This pattern can be made in two sizes: crossbody or tote. It features three zipper pockets, perfect for storing essentials!

I made this Zippy Crossbody Bag using Jessica Swift's new Tallinn fabric line.This is her First Collection with Art Gallery Fabrics! Be sure to check out the entire Lookbook - full of incredible projects! >>> http://liveartgalleryfabrics.com/tallinn-fabric-lookbook/

This bag is ready for travel and shopping trips! It's the perfect size to fit the essentials. This bag can easily fit a phone, sunglasses, card wallet, checkbook, utensils, gum, and other small items! I like to clip my keys to one of the swivel clips while shopping. This pattern is also fat quarter friendly! It requires only a small amount of fabric. Make with quilt weight cotton, canvas, denim, home dec fabrics, vinyl, or cork fabric!

Below is pictured another Zippy Crossbody Bag, in Art Gallery Fabrics Fietsen Printemps designed by Katarina Roccella. Wouldn't this make a great bag to take along on a bike ride?
