Today I managed to find time to attach the satin bias binding around both the front and back of the shoulder bag, it was rather fiddly as the bas is only 1/2inch wide.
Black satin bias added around the bag shape.
I machine sitched it on to the front first then rolled the binding over and stitched it down by hand. Instead of doing this you could over-lock or surger it, but I find this way gives it a nicer finish inside and out. I will hand sew the ties to this binding. I also made up two pockets for inside of the bag, large one and a small one, I have attached the large one ready to sew on, I added a running stitch around the pocket then a little embroidery.
Large pocket made and ready to stitch on to the inside of bag front. You need to click on photo's to see clearly!!!!!
Hopefully I will have more to show tomorrow?????
