The final post for the Sew News Grainline Studio Portside Travel Set sew along is up on the Sew News blog and you can find it HERE.
I had such a good time putting the bags together. And even better, I now have 2 sets to choose from. So depending on my mood....or my traveling outfit ;), I'm all set. Believe it or not, I actually have a pair of boots that match the first set I made!!! Now that's coordination :)
My finished sew along set below. I am super pleased with how the bags turned out. Love the distressed leather and how well the Amy Butler fabric coordinates with it.
In the post, I did my best to walk you step by step through the process of creating the adjustable strap.It's just a bit tricky, just give it a try and I think you'll figure it out.
Christmas is just around the corner, and since the bags are great for men and women alike, and since they go together so quickly and easily, you just might want to consider doing a few as gifts. But then, you might be like me and just decide to keep them all for yourself!!!
If by chance you would like to make the bags up at a later date, here are the links to the sew along posts,

Lovely bags - so stylish and practical!
ReplyDeleteBoth sets are awesome but I really like the red print version. And of course you have boots to match this set! Thanks for sharing your knowledge on how to sew a new set of luggage!
ReplyDeleteBoth sets are absolutely stunning. Thanks for the sew along. The links ate very useful. Xx
ReplyDeleteThey look really smart, and are very practical too. I'm not too surprised you are keeping both sets!
ReplyDeleteHard to beat coordinated luggage and outfit - smart sets.
