My Day Monday

It has been a while since I posted my Monday Etsy favourites - time to start the weekly post again!

LEAVES

Clockwise from top left: AliBaliJewellery, P8ButtonArt, DeerLola, oneperfectday.

And the reason for picking the leaves theme is that after a long sewing pause I am finally adding something new to my shop: a zippered purse in cream canvas with stripes and leaves. I have a couple more cut out & waiting, I hope to add them tomorrow.

Have a great start of the new week!

New in my shop

It was about time - another hipster bag is now available in my shop!

Made from lovely cream white basque cloth with woven stripes in rusty red, slate grey and taupe brown. I cut out some leaves from the same cloth and appliqued them in front and back. The bag has all the usual features: back zippered pocket, interior slip pocket for a phone and a handy D-ring for attaching keys.

Leaves are my favourite autumn inspiration and I intend to make more bags, especially zippered pouches, with leaves appliques. Stay tooned!

Happy weekend!

The weather forecast for the next couple of days says sunny and warm, with golden leaves everywhere and clear blue sky above...

Autumn leaves

My oak trees are turning gold...

New Mia zipper pouch with freehand embroidered leaves in warm autumn colours on chocolate brown wool. The purse is interfaced and lined with dark khaki canvas and closes with an orange zipper.

October gold

I love October, when it gets all sunny and warm again after the first serious rain and cold of late September.

Now, close to Halloween, the gold comes pouring down from the trees and the bright yellow and red leaves fall against the damp black asphalt. Anywhere I turn there is a picture perfect scene, the Nature posing for the last time before it puts on it's winter makeup.
