Grace..
is a new cross body purse by designer Yanna of BagoVado.
It was my lucky day when I first met Yanna and began pattern testing for her. :-) She lives on Cyprus, so,of course, we 'met' on line. I have seen pix of her home and the area where she lives and it is gorgeous! Yanna uses mostly leather and faux leather for her bags, but cotton and upholstery type fabrics can also be used. She comes up with such fun little details in her bags. My DD and DDIL both love the bags I make and gift to them. ;-)
Grace is mine! :-)
I used a fabric that my DS brought me when he had to work in Japan for a bit last year.
It is a little heavier than a cotton, but lighter than upholstery fabric.
It has a great texture to its weave. The accents are a suede/faux leather I had in my stash. And the lining is quilting cotton. There is a pocket in the lining, but I didn't get it in the photo.
You can find the pattern in Yanna's shop HERE
It is on sale now, but all her patterns are very reasonably priced.
Be sure to check out all the tester photos in her listing. ;-)
Do you like to sew your own bags?
Until next time~
happy stitchin'!!

The Grace bag has a very classy look to it. Not a casual cloth bag like so many of the patterns. I do like the cloth bags but this one is special.
