I really can't call this a Fabulous Free Pattern Friday piece as this was done by The Weekend Designer back in August of 2008. And since no pattern was published, it really doesn't fit in the Thrifty Thursday file either. But it's a great bag that is super easy to make, so in the event that you haven't seen this bag, I think you'll really enjoy making one for yourself. The suede bag was originally sold in the Sundance catalog, and like most things in the catalog, it was very nice, but fairly expensive. They came in a lovely selection of colors. I didn't have a piece of suede that was of a suitable weight, so I made mine out of a supple piece of leather. As long as I don't carry bricks in the bag, the lighter weight of leather should be fine. You can find all of the detailed instructions for this bag here. In the instructions for the bag, there is a graph for the pattern. Rather than make you count the tiny squares, I thought I would just draw it out for you. You can see that the bag is really nothing more than a few connected rectangles. The width across the bottom is 9" The side length is 11" The length of the handle is 9" And my apologies, I neglected to add that the width of the handle is 2 1/2" I did not draw out the bottom of the bag, but it is a simple 9" square. In order to achieve the curved edge on my handle, I used my curved ruler, but to be honest, you can easily draw the curve in by hand. In order to have the same exact curve on either side, I simply folded the pattern in half and then cut the handle out. If you have never sewn with leather or suede, I encourage you to give it a try. To be honest, I absolutely love sewing with leather. The leather comes as a skin and there will be imperfections. In the picture below you can see a hole in the lower left hand corner. So when choosing a skin, look carefully at the piece before purchasing it. If there was a large imperfection in the center, it would really limit the possibilities of what I could do with the skin. The instructions from the Weekend Designer says to cut the handle on the fold. This would not allow me to make the best use the leather, so I decided to just add a seam to the top of my handle. One of the nice things about leather is that is no grain, so you can turn your pieces in whatever way you like as you see below. I have marked my pieces on the wrong side of the leather. The bag has 4 sides, so since I didn't cut the handle on the fold, I will need to cut 4. I was able to get 3 sides out of 1 skin. Once all of the pieces have been cut, it's time to start sewing them together. Leather can be a little tricky especially since you can't pin it. The instructions say to use mounting tape. I have never used tape on any leather project. If you would like, you can use paper clips to hold the pieces together as you sew. You can also use a walking foot. But to be honest, I don't use either. Just take your time, be patient and practice a little with some of your scraps and I think you'll get the hang of sewing with leather. One thing to keep in mind is that you must use a leather needle. Please don't try to use a regular needle. The leather needle has a special point specifically for sewing leather. It makes all the difference in the world. Once you sew the seam, I used 1/4" seams on this bag, you can either glue down the seams with rubber cement, or you can top stitch them. I prefer to top stitch my seams. It must have been the angle at which I took the picture as my stitches look like they are on an angle, but they really aren't. Once the seams for the sides of the bag have been sewn, you'll then attach the bottom. Pay close attention to the fact that the seams of the bag do not match up to the corners of the bottom. The seams of the bag match the center of the bottom of the bag. It can be a little tricky, but you can top stitch the seams around the bottom of the bag. Just take your time. Since I didn't cut my handles on the fold, I simply over lapped the 2 ends and sewed them together. My finished bag. You can see that the bag is quite roomy. If you would like a hard bottom, you can always cut a piece of chip board, a thick cardboard, and place it in the bottom of the bag. I rather like the soft, easy feel of the bag. If you have never sewn with leather or suede, I urge you to give it a try. This is a great first time project. If you are a little concerned about spending the money for leather for a first time project, there are a lot of home dec fabrics that mimic leather, so that's a nice alternative. The Weekend Designer no longer writes at that address. You can find him at http://bagntell.wordpress.com/ The blog is full of wonderful information and projects. He also has a Craftsy class that teaches you how to work with leather and you can find it here.
Available both in English and French. Two neckline options are included in the pattern DUBULA is the ancient Celtic name for the Deûle, a channeled river which flows through Orlane’s home town in Northern France. Dubula also translates as “noiraude” (soot-blackened) in French, which was also the name given to the soot-spirits in the French version of Hayao Miyazaki’s award-winning Studio Ghibli anime film “My Neighbor Totoro”. Just like the film, this sweater has a comforting, bohemian and poetic feel. Dubula is slightly loose for a modern and cozy look. Knitted in the round, it is constructed by first working the lower body and sleeves to the armholes. The three pieces are then joined to form one piece and thus work the colourwork yoke. The stitches of the neckline are picked up to knit the collar, folded and fairly wide, giving the final touch to the strong personality of the sweater. Throughout the process, several series of short rows are used for a comfortable and beautifully shaped finish.

Il signifie également “noiraude”, mot qui parlera à toutes les personnes sensibles au charme de “Mon voisin Totoro”, le merveilleux film de Hayao Miyazaki. Le pull Dubula en a le côté réconfortant, bohème et poétique. Il se porte légèrement loose pour une allure moderne et cosy. Tricoté en rond, il se construit en travaillant d’abord le bas du corps et les manches jusqu’au niveau des emmanchures. Les trois pièces sont ensuite réunies pour n’en former qu’une et travailler ainsi l’empiècement en jacquard du haut du corps. Les mailles de l’encolure sont ensuite relevées pour tricoter le col, replié et assez large, donnant la touche finale à la forte personnalité du pull. Au long du process, plusieurs séries de rangs raccourcis sont utilisées afin de mettre en forme un vêtement confortable et au joli tombé.

For a while I longed to make a crochet toiletry bag with the tapestry technique and today, I finally made it! On this occasion, the peculiarity of this project is that it combines a crochet fabric with a technique to assemble the toiletry bag, which we usually see in the field of sewing. This way of assembling our crochet toiletry bag will give us a three-dimensional cube-shaped case. I searched the internet for crochet tapestry bags, and I was very impressed by the fact that they were all flat, in the shape of an envelope, or with circular or tubular
