Miniature bags (or…I lost my mind !)

April 8, 2010 35 Comments

I was serious when I said I would like a collection of miniature bags.
Last evening at 8 PM, after a full day of quilting, I started to make other two miniatures.

The smallest is 25% from my original Amelie bag.

I love them but it wasn’t piece of cake to make them….If I would have had a miniature sewing machine, a miniature iron, even miniature hands…

I used ribbon for straps…

Someone who enjoy stitching by hand could stitch even a smaller version.

It measures only 2.75″ x 3.75″ (7×9.5 cm) .

I am sure I will not make a smaller version… I don’t have time ! 🙂

    Those little bags are adorable!! I have made a miniature version of one of my favorite bag patterns before. You're right, a miniature sewing machine and iron would sure help alot lol. I like the idea of possibly sewing them by hand. I love the picture of them all together. Shows just how small they really are.

    You are what we call "a glutton for punishment"! But, I do like those little bags and miniatures are fun – to a point.

    Geta, sunt absolut, dar absolut mortale. S-o pastrezi pe cea verde pentru tine, sa n-o daruiesti. Este atat de trendy!

    Oh my word Geta. They are amazing. Well done for sticking at them. You can actually get a small iron you know, the Clover iron. I bet you do make a smaller one, I think I know you enough to know you will just have to give it a go.
    Good luck if you do. hahahaha

    These are fabulous! Wouldn't it be cool to have a whole bunch of them and use them as Christmas Tree ornaments?

    Beautiful. I can't imagine making such a little bag. Love it (design, fabric, colors, size) but it does look difficult for me. Still, I'm inspired. I'd love to see a special exhibit at a quilt show on mini bags. Lovely.

    Aaaah, Eeeeh, these are so tiny. Bless you for having the patience to be so creative with something so tiny. They are as cute and as precious as can be. Well done, good job.

    Have a great day.
