Up to no Good



Meet my Piped & Pleated bag. This is the bag that I made for myself. This is the bag that replaced the gorgeous bag my husband bought for me three Christmases ago. This is the bag that started all of the bags below (and more).

Black & Pink Sassy Piped & Pleated Bag

This bright pink and black bag was sewn for my neighbor and it matches perfectly her sass and energy. Always bubbly and energetic, she loved the black and pops of pink.

Details:
Exterior: Black 100% cotton duck cloth
Light interfacing
Patch pocket is rounded at bottom and has matching pink piping.










Next up came its neighbor, a piped zipper bag, perfect for tucking inside and keeping your small items and treasures safe and discreet.

Details:

Exterior: Black 100% cotton duck cloth
Light interfacing
Bottom is gusseted






I've saved the best for last. My mom asked me to make her one of the bags and I used that opportunity to finalize the process and pattern. It turned out beautiful and I'm finding it hard to give up.

I mean seriously, look at the pocket. I adore it.

I have a kelly green bag in the works for a good friend and I have a feeling that that particular bag will also be hard to part with. Is it bad that I love each bag I sew? I think not!

At this point, I haven't offered any up on Etsy but if you are interested in one of the Piped & Pleated bags, I'd be interested in taking on some custom work. Please email me at soundsew@gmail.com for more details. Bags are currently being priced at $40 each.
