I decided to use a home decor weight fabric for the exterior, and I didn't do the fabric accents on the handles.
This bag is sturdy -- it has batting, cotton canvas, and interfacing.
Perhaps I'll use it to take my Featherweight to our guild Sew In next weekend.

What a great bag! I need to take a look at that pattern. I bought a small rolling scrap bookers cart for my featherweight. But the bag is so much cuter!
ReplyDeleteSuch perfect colors for you, Anja! I would love to see the machine photographed in the bag (hint, hint - haha, that's actually not subtle at all)! :)
ReplyDeleteVery nicely done! When I found my FW it came with a case but without the tray or any extra feet or anything.
ReplyDeleteAnd someone else is doing a weekly bag making link up. SOTAK Handmade maybe? Have a great weekend.
This is a great tote for your featherweight! I have been thinking of. Making a travel bag for mine...you have inspired me!
ReplyDeleteLove your featherweight bag, I’m still looking, sad.
ReplyDeleteAwesome bag - and orange of course! :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat bag and of course the colour is you.
ReplyDeleteAwesome bag and my favourite colour.
ReplyDeleteGreat and very useful bag, it looks wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThis is a terrific carry bag, Anja! I have a featherweight, and it came with its original case. It's so beat up and ugly - I should make something pretty, too, for it! Did you need to reinforce the bottom with anything particularly rigid, or is the canvas/batting/interfacing combo fine for that?
ReplyDeleteWow! That is an awesome bag! Love the colours! Looks like it'll be quite sturdy to carry anything in.
ReplyDeleteLove this bag. Looks quite sturdy! Thanks for linking up with Elm Street Quilts Bag It.
ReplyDeleteI saw this ...on Instagram? When it hadn't grown up yet I believe... or maybe it was a prior post with your goals. In any event (!!) it turned out terrific! Great idea to use canvas. I have a case for each of my Featherweights but apparently people don't like to use them, preferring to keep them in as good a shape as they can. So I feel one of these is in my future... I think we talked about one (somewhere!) I saw that opens out to a sewing pad/tool holder or something? Oh to snap the fingers and instantly make all these great projects we spy, eh? Let us know how it does if you do use it at your Sew In!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a pretty bag! I love the orange dots on the inside too. Really bright and happy! Did you take it along to the Sew In?
ReplyDeleteThat's really cute! Using home dec fabrics was a good idea on a project like this one.
ReplyDeleteYou got sidetracked and made a bag? That makes it a Dreami. Home decor makes a pretty bag even sturdier.
ReplyDeleteAnd if this what you do when you are sidetracked, I'd love to see you work when you are super-focused:-)
