Easy-Peasy all-in-one Yoga Bag - new pattern from A Beautiful Day - O Zi Frumoasa

Hello everyone!


Long time no see, I know, but here I am!

I'm so happy to tell you a few things about my new bag pattern! The name speaks for itself: 

Easy-peasy all-in-one Yoga Bag. 


Bag in pink and white patterned fabric with a yoga mat held in the bottom.

It is a special bag pattern. 

What makes this pattern special? When you look at the bag, you don't see anything special in its appearance. It has a common shape. What makes it different is its interior. I'm particularly proud of two things I managed to work out in this pattern: on the one hand, the built-in lower space (not added as ...

TUTORIAL - How to install invisible magnetic snaps on a bag from A Beautiful Day - O Zi Frumoasa

 



Overview

    The pronged magnetic snaps (standard magnetic snaps) are a very easy and fast closure for a bag, but when your bag needs a clean-looking, flat profile, hidden from view magnetic closure, a practical variant is using invisible magnetic snaps, known also as sew-in magnetic snaps. They are very useful for many types of bags, for wallets or pocket flaps.

Thus, today I'm happy to share my brand new bag pattern, Tama Handbag!

Portland Tote (new pdf pattern) from Sotak Handmade

 

Hello lovelies,

I have a brand new bag pattern to share with you today! I hope you will like this Portland Tote as much as I do.


This bag design has been on my mind for a very, very long time so a few months ago I finally sewed it up and made a bag for myself (using Merchant and Mills dry oilskin for the exterior) . I've been using this bag every since and I couldn't be happier with it.



With its large front exterior pocket, zipper and slip pockets on the inside, as well as a main ...

Unlined Shopping bag with removable pocket - pattern for sewing easy and practical bags from A Beautiful Day - O Zi Frumoasa

It is a common truth that we live in interesting and challenging times.
My generation will have full bags of memories to share.

We are about to reach  the middle of this turbulent full of fear and unknown things 2020, without realizing it. The Pandemic brutally stopped the whirlwind of life in which we all were carried. The two months of isolation meant to prevent the spread of the SARS virus - Covid 19, reminded us, among other profound things, that we are the sons and daughters of planet Earth, not its masters. The geographer in me keeps telling me this ...

When in doubt, make a bag! - Two tips for those who sew bags from A Beautiful Day - O Zi Frumoasa

Like many of you, I buy fabric sometimes just because I like it. Maybe for the color combination or its design, or for its texture ... or for all of these together.
On such an occasion I bought a piece of fabric for home decor, only because I really liked the classic floral design lying on the dark background. The opportunity to put him to work came these days when I decided to use it for the 2nd variant of my unfinished bag pattern.

Tips and tricks for sewing beautiful bags by spending clever your money -1 from A Beautiful Day - O Zi Frumoasa

One of my dearest activities is sewing bags. All kind of bags: large, small, handbags, totes, shopping bags (oooh, how I love them!) and of course, pouches.
Even though it is impossible to find here where I live the perfect combination of fabric-lining-interfacing-batting-hardware for bag making, I try to gather the best ones from all kind o places: our local shops or online shops and overseas online shops. The last source I just mentioned would be my first choice if the transport prices would not have increased so much, that doubles the cost of the order.
But when you really ...
