Look close... everything old is new again

Major material up-cycle on this lined18 by 18 inch bag with a 3 inch gusseted bottom, and zipper closure. I am re-upholstering a sofa and saved all the old tapestry fabric. This is the "wrong side" of the material and it almost makes me wish I had just removed and reversed the original fabric instead of replacing it!

 I really enjoyed the piecework, selecting vintage embellishments, and adding the hand stitched details.  

 I love the crazy lining and of course I had to add a label to finish it all off! This one is headed off to my Etsy shop!
