Every year we get this amazing catalog from a local mall, it is thick pages and very vibrant ads. I always imagined I would sew up some bags from it and this year final did! You can see above a few of my creations peeking out from one that is sewn up.
Catalog, with its lovely pages.
I used two pages per bag, and trimmed the front page (bag) a few inches lower, I chose to use a pinking blade, which would be the same effect as pinking shears.
Simply sew the two sheets together in a U, and wella you have simple and nearly free bags, I completed about 25 bags in about an hour. This was actually a fun and quick little project, and I still have about 1/2 the catalog left, though admittedly I have already used most of the really colorful pages. This will be great for an upcoming Clearance show I hope to do in early February.
