The perks of working at a fabric shop
Last summer, I got a bunch of surplus fabric samples from my boss, saving them from the trash.
I knew I wanted to make a blanket from them right away and spent a good bit of time counting, sorting and planning the arrangement. I tried to spread the colours and different patterns as evenly as possible and went for an otherwise simple approach, as this was my first time quilting anything bigger than a pillowcase. It was at times super difficult to wrangle this under my sewing machine and handstitching the binding all around took forever. I might add some more intricate stitches on the individual rectangles at some point, but for now I really like how it turned out and it makes for a fun cover for my couch.

Just wanted to share some of these original patchwork bags I've been making this past year! You might have seen some these in the photo from my artist alley table at Colossalcon East, but here are more photos, and a few in progress shots. 🥰
Some of these are patchwork and some are crazy improv piecing. Either way it's a totally unique bag! I use lots of interesting fabrics for my stash, including lots of import Japanese fabric, and vintage fabric!

I made this yukata!
The fabric was a 14 yard long, 12" wide tanmono bolt that I bought from Japan and sewed using both western and Japanese methods of construction!

Does anyone the name of the pattern of the fabric on this Shiba's neck bandana? I've seen it elsewhere in Japanese culture, but can't find a name for it. I want to buy a few yards of it, but can't locate a source for it anywhere.

"Marta" drawstring bag (pattern by BurgioPatterns) in the larger size.
I'm extremely pleased with the fabrics I chose for this bag, and how they worked together. The main body is navy blue; accent pocket is a Japanese metallic bronze floral and blue wave print; drawstring channel is a sort of yellow that closely imitates the metallic print. On the side with the pocket, the handle is plain navy; on the other side, the handle uses the accent print. Inside, the lining is white, with the same navy for pockets. I also included a lobster clasp lanyard, to hold a pair of folding scissors.
This bag is large enough for a me-sized sweater project. It comfortably holds this me-sized sport-weight sweater, for example:
I could probably fit a sweater, yarn, and tools in it. I'm not entirely convinced it could hold my partner's sweater, but he wears a 2XL-Tall.
Size comparison with the Small after the break.
The Large could probably fit two paper towel rolls and close; the Small is wide enough for one inside, but not tall enough to close.
I'd say the Small is suitable for smaller projects that use 1-2 balls of yarn (eg: hats, socks, small shawls).

Imagine being rich and paying for bland minimalist textiles and cold sterilized homes when you could be paying folk artists handsomely for handcrafted beauty and color —helping preserve honestly quite priceless artistic traditions and supporting the people who keep these legacies alive— instead.
