This pattern comes from my favorite Japanese bag book (which I’ll blog about anon). It’s made from a too-big pair of pink linen pants and a too-small cotton shirt. The strap is the drawstring from the pants.
Here’s a closeup of the embroidery:
And here’s the lining:
I interfaced the whole thing with a very lightweight interfacing–just enough to help it keep it’s shape without making it stiff. I’m very pleased with how it turned out and as there’s quite a bit of the pants and shirt left I plan on making at least one more. Unfortunately I’ll have to make the strap next time since I used the drawstring for this one.
