A subtle demonstration of how you can make a tote bag with a lot of embellishments that's still practical. -
Intriguing shape and lots of custom detailing make the Parisienne Party Bag a drop dead stunner! -
I built Bag Five -the original Micki - as a gift for my BFF. She wanted a bag that was durable, not too big, and with some specific features. -
Bag Four was a bit more difficult to make; I hadn't created anything with this kind of structure previously. The main requirement was to be able to sit the bag on the handle of a rollaboard suitcase. -
Bag Three turned out to be a real stunner - an intriguing set of textures and patterns. It's a pity that I don't have more pics of it, but sometimes that's just the way it works out. -

The original prototype bag - this is it.
