Description
When you’re popping into town or out for the evening and want to travel light but not cram your pockets with stuff, this purse is perfect. You can see the dimensions of the purse in the last photograph and it is perfect for carrying a little cash, your cards, keys, a smaller sized mobile phone and a little make up.
This purse is made with a tana lawn print by Liberty of London called ‘Tamsyn’. The colourful design was inspired by the peeling antiquity of the painted frescos of Bartolomeo Di Fruosino in fifteenth Century Florence. The effect of the aged layering of paints was created by using oil based inks onto paper with a roller – I love how rich and blended the colours of the fabric look.
I’ve interfaced the lawn with 2 layers of woven cotton to give it structure and strength and added a soft fleece to protect the contents. The wristlet strap is made from the same fabric as the outer and the lining of the purse is made with a sparkling bronze coloured Essex Linen with gold metallic threads running through it, which is also interfaced with woven cotton to ensure longevity and add more structure to the bag overall.
If you like the design but would prefer the purse made in a different fabric that you’ve seen in my shop, just convo me to discuss what’s possible.
Please note that the photographs here are of sample bags and your bag may look slightly different, according to how the fabric is cut.
