2 Petite MoMos

Today is Friday. It's strictly no-sewing day for me as I need to pack my bags for MAAD tomorrow. Yesterday I managed to make 2 more bags. I call them petite MoMos.
The basic shape of the bags is a rectangle with boxed corners. It's the closure that makes the bag. Yes, I sucummed to drawstring casing again. The main fabric on both petite bags are Odyssea by Japanese textile designer MoMo.

Even tho' the main fabric is cotton twill, it is very lightweight and I'm thinking the next time I use these fabric, I will use batting.
I thought the striped casing went really well with the main fabric!
It was harder finding a casing for this colourway. I finally went with a blue-grey.
4 different fabric was used for the first MoMo.
- Odyssea cotton twill for the main fabric
- Striped cotton for the casing
- Green and white gingham for the lining
- Red upholstery cotton for the handles
4 different fabric was used for the second MoMo.
- Odyssea cotton twill for the main fabric
- Blue-grey cotton for the casing
- Michael Miller's Ocean cotton for the lining
- Red upholstery cotton for the handles

Yep, I so spoil my bags! These are my last 2 bags for this week. I'm looking forward to going to MAAD tomorrow. Hope it doesn't rain because I'm taking the train.
