My cutting picture for the sew along:). These fabrics are from Amy Butler’s new collection called Soul Blossom.
There is brown in each print, so I think it will look great with the leather accents.

These two pictures are from so simply Stephanie she is creating two bags in the sew along. One is for her and one is for a friend.
I love the fabrics for both bags. I have visited her awesome blog too.
She has caught “the sewing bug” and has been sewing everything in site! Thanks for posting such wonderful pictures and leading the group with creativity!
