It’s the mock crocodile fabric that makes all the difference to this simple backpack, as modelled by young Vanessa.
Or, more precisely, I think it’s the combination of the deep-red mock croc flap (and handles!) with the lush-flowered fabric of the bag itself.
Either way, I feel twinges of greed…
This scaled-down feminine backpack is the work of Sarah Leak, the driving spirit (and mad quilting fanatic) behind the Quilt Fabric Delights online fabric ship.
The colours drew me immediately, Diva – the mock croc texture is almost a bonus!
Sarah, I’m really enjoying your blog!
Thank you – glad you liked it. It was fun to make.
Aren’t the colours fantastic?
