drsue said... terrific bag. Love the fabric. 1/8/04 10:19 PM
Gigi Louis said... Thank you all for your nice comments! Deepika, I have quite a stash of Ultrasuede. I bought a lot when some of the local shops used to carry it. I do think you can buy it online from Nancy's Notions. Yes, Linda, the bag will a class at Cynthia's - look for it in the next newsletter. :-) 1/9/04 6:06 AM
Gigi Louis said... Deepika, www.fieldsfabrics.com has loads of Ultrasuede. I would order the sample set (the cost of which is refundable) so that you can see the actual colors in person. 1/9/04 9:06 AM
Ann Smith said... Love this, Gigi. Great review with lots of helpful tips to make the bag better. I do hate that turning "little by little with my fingers". 1/9/04 10:59 AM
Meredith P said... Great bag--guess I'll have to indulge ;-) Very helpful review, as usual. 1/10/04 7:02 AM
Melissa S. said... Ooooo. Must have this pattern. Beautiful!! 1/10/04 7:14 PM
Pickle said... Great bag! I like doing it in different fabrics or a wild print like you did...how big is it and what is a Steam Stick? 1/14/04 5:49 PM
Gigi Louis said... Pickle, a Steam Stick is a long half-round piece of hardwood used to press open pant seams. The bag measures about 13" wide, 10" deep and 16" tall. 1/15/04 7:03 AM
Terri K said... Gigi Do you think ultrasuede would work for a contrast set of handles? I've got some of the heavier ultrasuede that isn't popular in garments anymore and may just make a bag from it. My pattern is on the way. 1/17/04 11:29 AM
Gigi Louis said... Terri, Ultrasuede would work great! I too have a load of US, which is why I used it for my lining. 1/17/04 11:47 AM
