I posted a photo of the beginnings of this bag a couple entries ago. I copied the pattern from a plastic grocery bag.
It folds quite flat and small, but holds a lot.
This fabric had a selvedge of steel! Almost broke my needle! At least it made a pretty cool bottom hem of the bag.
My favorite part, perhaps: the tops of the handles are bound with bias tape on both sides, then folded over and bar-tacked together for strength and style.
Looks kinda like your standard plastic grocery store bag. Not the MOST attractive thing ever, but it was a fun experiment.
Another experiment:
Daniel's not sure if he wants to eat my creepy cookie that I made specially for him. The roommates watch in tense anticipation. (It's just a melted candy cane!!!)
Daniel and I made some silkscreens last week at the Vera Project, of the Mathematician/Philosopher Bertrand Russell. He is a cool dude! To get a quick idea of who he is, you should read this short article on an idea he is perhaps most known for: "Russell's Teapot."
Anyway, I was having some masking difficulties as well as alignment difficulties... so... yes, I KNOW it's way off toward my right side. C'est la vie.
Too much computering for such a lovely day.
