Back in August, a friend approached me to design and sew a custom bag for her--using changing pads from her favorite diaper bags. As you can imagine, there was a lot of planning. And since we were using changing pads, all the pattern pieces had to be just the right size. So I made a prototype & sent it to her.
It was just what she was hoping for, so we moved on to the actual purse. Here's the final product that I finished in December.
So, fast forward to recently & I had a request to make the same bag using different changing pads. I received the materials at the beginning of the month & I have finally completed another bag. This one has additional slip pockets on the back.
(The fabric used for these bags are from Ju-Ju-Be diaper bag changing pads. Both prints, Purple Paisley & Blue Bouquet are now discontinued.)
So that's why the blog switched over to "Sophisticated Seams". Though now that I'm back to focusing on sewing for me and not as a business I'm having a bit of an identity crisis.

ReplyDeleteI don't know how you are able to accommodate sewing/crafting with 2 lo at home and one on the way ... kuddos to you!
Any tips ;-)?
Lovely custom bag. I am also contemplating on doing something like this - simple but functional design. Will you be willing to share patterns and tips for me to embark on a project similar to yours? Many thanks!
