sewn-by-susie #1

Sunday, October 26th, 2008

Frustratingly, I’ve been putting off finishing a bunch of products I’d half-made as I’ve been waiting for ‘sewn by susie’ woven labels. Not being able to stand having all these bits and pieces lying about any longer, I decided I’d just start finishing some of them and (begrudgingly) hand-sew the labels in when they come in. Hopefully they’ll come soon. They’re nothing too flash but they’ll tell you who your goods are sewn by!

I’ll have a fair variety of crafty items up for grabs in the shop, but here’s the first fully completed sewn-by-susie! It’s made from a beautiful vintage medium-weight cotton fabric that has the slightest sheen to it and is quite sturdy due to it being lined with another lovely medium-weight cotton canvas.

  

 

 

    SATCHEL!

    Or book bag, uni bag, shopping bag…

    Whatever you want it to be!

making lots of things

Tuesday, October 21st, 2008

That’s pretty much the gist of the post: I am making lots of things! I guess the other relevant and exciting part is that I am making things for other people…. but they don’t know it yet, and I don’t know who they are yet! Yes, I think I’m going to make available to the world wide web things sewn by susie…

I hope the world wide web people like it…

Store! Can’t wait. Will keep you posted.
