the SWANclothing Calla tote
2 July 2009
my SWANclothing Calla totes are going up today…






view large here.
this bag is as simple as i wish my summer was. light as a feather, and soft. they almost look like pillows. that’s because the entire bag is quilted. and then decorated with a quilted calla lily flower whose stem runs under the bag and turns into another calla lily. the handle is cotton rope that i chain stitched not using a crochet hook, just my fingers. the bag is finished with some fat embroidery handstitching. it’s fully lined and has a big inner pocket for your smaller things and comes in grey or white.
personally i am looking for the perfect panama hat to go with mine.
in the SWANclothing store.
thank you elle s’ennuie! and yes, i am very lucky, i could sew about 11 days after the accident. all i have is a scar now :)

so glad you like them jennine :) it’s funny i saw some more calla lilies growing outside here today. maybe i just wasn’t paying attention before, but they have always been a favourite of mine. so 20s.
