New in my shop

I recently listed a couple of XL zipper pouches with, as I like to call them, wild tulips. I have always wanted to make my appliques a bit "messy", with not so neat stitching and not every thread in its place but each time I try to go a bit wild, my (otherwise very messy personality) pulls me back into clean, neat lines. I don't know why that is but having this in mind you might find the two tulips quite an achievement for me :-)

The third new listing is a hobo shoulder bag, made from rich olive green upholstery velvet (soft to the touch but very durable). I have sewn four little fishies on it (again, with clean&neat stitching) and then decorated them with some hand embroidery. The interior is my recent favourite botanical print from Ikea and as usually, the bag has a zippered interior pocket and a swivel hook.

I wish you all a wonderful weekend!

Novo v trgovini:
Dve puščici na zadrgo z "divjima tulipanoma". Vedno sem si želela ustvariti takšne bolj scufane, neobdelane našitke, pa me moja sicer ne zelo redoljubna narava vedno usmeri v čiste, polikane, natančno obšite oblike, kjer stran ne štrli niti ena sama nitka. Ta dva tulipana sta torej, vsaj za moje pojme, precej divja :-)

Druga novost pa je malha Pupa, narejena iz olivno zelenega tapetniškega žameta, ki je mehak na otip, a zelo trpežen. Na torbi so našite štiri ribice (spet z zelo strogim obšivom), čez pa sem jih malo povezla na roko. Torba ima še notranji žep na zadrgo in kaveljček za ključe.

Vsem želim lep vikend!

I know I should be searching for my Monday inspiration right now but instead here is a brand new Pupa shoulder bag I listed last night.

It is made of floral upholstery fabric in olive green I bought years ago in Troyes in France - I found a lovely fabric store very close to where we used to live, but sadly it was closing down so I had to quickly grab the leftover pieces that were still available.

I love this soft and luxurious fabric and it goes really well with raspberry pink corduroy and metallic lace trim in old gold. In my vintage buttons box I even found two matching metallic buttons and to make it more summer like I lined the bag and the zippered pocket with colourful rose print. The handles are made of thin ribbed corduroy in khaki, adorned with raspberry ribbon.
