Houndstooth Tweed Pleated Shoulder Bag

This is the last bag I made for April MAAD. I used tweed and it has a pattern called houndstooth on it. The houndstooth checks is in black and I used black sewing thread and after sewing on it for a while, you feel like you are going blind!

The tweed is a very attractive brown and I really like black on brown. I used stiff interface on the bands because I think some stiffness on bands is a good thing.

I'm on a piping roll.

April MAAD countdown. 13 out of 15 bags constructed. I'm 2 bags short. No excuses. I won't be sewing today because I've learnt my lesson and I'll observe a No-sewing day so I'll have energy for this weekend. It was really exciting sewing to a countdown. Thanks to everyone for cheering me on. See you at MAAD this weekend.
