Today I finished off two more components of my collection which were one print makeup case and one gold leather top.
For the print makeup case I did not purchase any commercial pattern so I decided to google it and find a diy website. I found a very helpful tutorial from http://www.designsponge.com/2010/09/sewing-101-zippered-case.html. The instructions were very straight forward and I finished the bag within minutes. I used a blue lining fabric and Je T'aime print for the outside.
Again for the gold leather top I did not purchase a commercial pattern and so I decided to take a risk and make my own pattern. I took my own leopard print sleeveless top and traced the shape onto the gold leather fabric which was folded into half to give me 2 pieces, one front and one back piece.
Next I pinned the fabric and cut out the pieces.
I then sewed the sides of the top starting from the bottom of the armholes and sewed the shoulders and I was done with the top.
