Linen Handbag


I made this handbag earlier this year. It is natural linen lined with black linen that is hand whipstitched together.


All embroidery is done with DMC embroidery floss. The key features of this bag are bullion roses and bullion star flowers with a variety of different types of leaves.


I made this from a Country Bumpkin patterns, but I had to substitute some colours. This bag is top-open to be a carry-shopping bag type, perfect for summer use.
