Blue Calla Clematis Wristlet

犬のベッドカバーを作った残りの布が、「私を鞄にしてください」と言っていたので、手始めにポーチを作ってみました。
Blue Callaという鞄の型紙屋さんが無料ダウンロードで出している型紙のクレマチスという型紙を使用。
アクセントに使っているのはコスプレでベストを作った残りのビニール布。
裏布はリュックサックを作った時に買った布のあまり。
と、無料ダウンロードの型紙とあまり布で作り上げた、とっても低価格なポーチです。
チェック柄もちゃんとマッチできて、大満足です。


The fabric I bought for making the dog bed/crate mat covers was so nice and substantial but soft, and it was screaming "Make me into a bag!" So I made a wristlet.


The pattern is The Clematis Wristlet from Blue Calla. It is a free download!


The main fabric, as I said, is the left-over "wool effect" cotton/poly blend upholstery fabric. I really like this fabric.

The accent fabric is a brown vinyl left-over from my Zoe Washburn costume

And the interior is the Ripstop left-over from my backpack.

Since all the fabric was left-over, I splurged myself with loads of hardware: D-rings, lobster clasps, belt sliders, and rivets, all in antique brass colorway.


There is a slip pocket inside. I apparently forgot to change the bobbin thread when I top stitched the zipper.

Speaking of top stitching. I used a bonded nylon thread for top stitching. I wanted something substantial for top stitching over vinyl and bonded nylon worked really well. Now I have a ginormous cone of brown thread so all my future vinyl project will most likely be brown.


I'm still very novice in sewing vinyl and using rivets, but I am very pleased with how this turned out.
Since I have just enough vinyl/main/and lining fabric left over, I am going for a full-fledged bag making with this combo next.
