Bag course

At the end of September I followed a course where we made a bag. It was a marvellous course with a fantastic courseleader: André Wallenborg. He is a well-known handbag designer with his own designstudio in Moss (Norway). His trademarks are smart designs. Knowing that we are sewing on 'normal' sewing machines he has an ingenious system of folding the fabric. That way you get lots of pockets that can still be sewn on normal sewing machines. The most difficult part of this course was the folding and the order in which you assemble the bag. The result looks really good. Soon afterwards I've made a second one to one of my friends so that I hope not to forget how to do it!
