Turquoise Birds & Silver Cork Koda Bag

Hi! I've just finished another Koda. I fell in love with the turquoise fabric - Flock, by Dashwood Studio, and I spent ages trying to decide whether to use black fabric to set off the pattern or use natural cork. I went with the cork because it looks so summery, and I love this cork with the silver in it!

First Faux Leather Koda

Hi! Here's yet another Koda, but this is my first using faux leather. It was actually fairly easy to use, and I love it with the bird fabric :)

Morsbags

Hi! I made my first Morsbag! I heard about Morsbags a while ago, and had been meaning to have a go. I love the idea - the bags must be made from recycled / re-purposed washable fabric, and replace the need for plastic bags. The Morsbags are given away, to friends and family, complete strangers - every Morsbag is potentially reducing the amount of plastic filling the seas and harming the sea creatures. The bag has a Morsbag label, to spread the word, and hopefully encourage more people to get involved, and to make and distribute Morsbags.

There's more about it, here: www.morsbags.com


For my bag, I used an old scarf. I hope it will be strong enough! But I can use it for lighter shopping :)





Spirit Koda

Hi! Some friends of ours have a little daughter who is obsessed with the TV series 'Spirit'. I wanted to make her a bag, but couldn't find any Spirit-themed fabric, so I bought some printable A4 cotton sheets and printed out an image from Spirit. It printed well, but the fabric is a bit odd - it's very thin. I used interfacing and fleece to give it more substance, and used some Scotchgard to prevent the ink from running. I hope it works!
