She's Crafty...

[emiko]

Hehe, I made something today XD A purse! I made a skirt earlier this week but I haven't finished up the accessories yet... This is definitely my most complex project I've worked on, I'm actually really surprised it came out so nice *___*

It's for a loli gift exchange from egl... My partner listed sweet and gothic as her styles, so I picked sweet since I had this cute fabric I really wanted to use ^^





Pin tucks or something XD I just kinda guessed on that part.



The covered button *__* <3



I did an inside pocket too~


So yeah. I'M REALLY PROUD OF THIS CAN YOU TELL?? Seeing as I made the pattern and all too. And this is only my second real sewing project ^^ It was really fun to make too, as opposed to the aforementioned skirt which seemed to take forever...

Looking at the pics now I think I should have sewn the straps to the outside of the bag, or between the layers, but it made sense to me at the time to put them outside... ah well. The design has some flaws as well, but I don't care, I'm really happy with how it came out XD My ego inflated like a billion times since I finished this, hahaha~

Thank ya :) You're birthday is right around the corner, yeah? Send me your address and I'll make you a similar one~

[abbie-chan.livejournal.com]

XD Holy crap, I didn't mean you really had to make me one!
Eee, I feel bad now.

oooommmmmmgeeeeee don't feel bad, I have so much of this fabric left (which will just sit around not doing anything), and I really enjoyed making this bag, PLUS I have to redesign some stuff on it, so really, so if you want, think of it as doing me a favor by letting me make you a 'prototype' as a gift~

[abbie-chan.livejournal.com]

I for one think that fabric would make a lovely skirt!
And yaay, I like prototype gift bag of prettiness! Just, can I have it sans lace and with a thicker strap so I can carry it across my shoulders? ^^

[emiko.livejournal.com]

Yeah, no problem~
