Little bags

Hi there, I haven't posted for a little while but I still have been busy creating more artworks for my Etsy shop :) 



I am also trying to expand the range of my products and I have been playing with a few ideas for a while.  One idea that I really liked was to make bags.  It would still allow me to use my embroidery skills to decorate them and  I would have the opportunity to play with fabric patterns and colours…  

So lately, I have been working on a few bags designs.  I have concentrated my focus on little bags only. They can be used as new baby gift bags, Christmas stocking fillers etc. 
I just wanted to share with some pictures with you. 


The first batch was a mini tote bag design with appliqué. The appliqués have been made with the free embroidery technique. 








The second batch is made of mini drawstring bags.   For these models, I focused on new baby gift bag. The blue one will be a gift for a little boy born not so long ago. It has his name hand embroidered on it.  The second one I made is for little girls. This model is fully lined and the string casing has been sewn on the exterior of the bag. I have embroidered a little pink heart (free motion embroidery) on the front. 







I am very happy with them and I am really considering starting to sell them online. The design possibilities are infinite and it is really great to make something nice and useful :)

For better updates on my work, why not follow me on Facebook ? https://www.facebook.com/LittleBirdOfParadise

Take care! :)

Last creations

So lately, I have been making more houses. I really enjoy building these little crooked things :)  They have been cut into remnants of different fabrics and appliquéd on a white cotton background. They are entirely hand embroidered.




And I have also made a new bird. This one has been made with the sewing machine again, with th free motion embroidery technique.

Spring colours



Lately, I have been inspired a lot by the revival of the nature around me. 
We had some lovely walks in our area and it's always wonderful to glimpse at new flowers blooming and trees getting green again. 



My last embroidery speak of spring, of new bloom of smell and colours. 



They taste spring, they have the colours of spring!
