I found my perfect fabric. It’s called Blythe, by Janet Dunn & Rebecca Bischoff for Robert Kaufman. it’s amazeballs. ROSES. Bright, saturated colors. Scattered polkadots. I am IN LOVE.
SO, I jumped on the Quilt-As-You-Go Amy Butler Weekender Bag train, and made this. It’s all Blythe, in two colorways (park and garden). I used some leather scraps to reinforce the handles, but otherwise, it’s all Blythe, all the time.
here’s the inside:
Since I had scraps after making the bag, I made the wallet from Straight Stitch Society.

I’m SOOOO in love with this line. and I’ve been getting tons of compliments on my bag from strangers all over town.
(also, in the pocket is my current favorite book Secret Garden. I’ve been raving about it on instagram for a while. I’m @ramonarose over there if you wanna follow me!)
