I was asked by her ballet teacher if I could sew a few bags for the school. Wow, what a surprise! I agreed to try and come up with a few designs and show them.
What I had in mind is to make something small for a start. I decided to sew ballet shoes bag. After trying making using different patterns and measurements, I'm finally satisfied with the third piece I sewn. First one was made a bit smaller than the expected size. So, the second piece I improved on the measurements. The size of the second piece came out just right but I wasn't satisfied with the finishing of the drawstring part. Hence, I made the third one. At last, I'm pleased with the third one, it came out the way I wanted it to be.
I used different colour combination of fabric to make three ballet shoes bag. I love to play with mix and match!
It was such a good opportunity for me to improve further on my skills as well as creativity. Here it is, the three ballets shoes bags I had sewn over the week.
I plan to make another one with apple green fabric. Stay tuned!
