Belt pouches

I made these two belt pouches from upcycled vintage indian fabric and added a few pretty decorations.

Each pouch is lined with navy blue patterned fabric.






 



 





The backs of the pouches


The pouches can hang from the belt or from the belt loops as two snap hooks are provided with each pouch

Funky brooches

Finally I got around to making something with the blank brooches I found.

Using felt spikes from a hair band and some sparkly Angelina fibers and some seed beads these are the results so far.......









 


Some of the brooches are 1 inch wide and some are 1.5 inches (2.5 cm /3.75cm)


Each spike differs in length but all are approx 4inches long (10cm)

Coin purse/ phone pockets

I have once again been busy making purses. These are simple coin purses but they are just as easy to use as a mini make up bag for in your handbag or as phone pockets. I have used new and recycled fabrics some of which are vintage!!!

















They fasten with velcro and each has a tiny bell attached for use as an anti theft device.

Patchwork wallet..

This week I made a wallet for a friend. She had a purse but it was old and she fancied a new one. The ols purse had a coin, note and credit card section and she wanted the new purse to be the same.

I wasn't sure I could manage it technically but hey no harm in trying.

Here is the finished result. Fortunately for me my friend loved it and it is now in her possession. :)

The notes section


 The front





 The back

The whole of the inside with credit card slots








The entire outside view


I am now busily making more which I can hopefully sell on my Etsy shop.
