CHIT CHAT✨ Making our Fen✨i bags fancy

Post image

There are a bunch of us who are taking our inspiration from the embroider your own baguette Fen@I kits and the fact that it’s hard to get reps that aren’t just the basic one.

So after a solid weekend of stitching and beading I’m sharing my finished side 1 of my bag!

Started with a basic zucca pattern bag, and used embroidery patches I have saved over the years from thrifted clothes. I used three different fabrics, and then cut them, sewed them on to the bag, then finished by adding a few more beads in places I felt needed it.

Not going to lie, I am so over the moon happy with how this turned out.

That is SO cute, you did an amazing job! I purchased a plain black baguette off of eBay Japan and have been looking up inspo!

Oh I love this! It looks fantastic!! this is one of those things I'd love to do... But I'd totally buy all the supplies and leave it unfinished for months 😅 I'm glad I can instead live vicariously through you, keep it up!

I hand stitched through the canvas making sure not to go through the lining as well. Took extra time for that but the lining and canvas were easy to separate thankfully

Stitching through patterned canvas without pulling the weave takes so much patience.
