Materials

Today was the day i went in search for materials. After carrying out research to what type of material i should use for my bag design i went straight to spotlight. I mean it's logical to go to spotlight as the first point when getting fabric right? Well i was wrong. They didn't carry that specific colour i was looking for. The next place i went to was reverse garbage in Marrickville, i went there in search for a bag in which i could use for the skeleton of my design. Surprisingly they just stocked up on a lot of fabric material aswell, and to my luck they had a colour in a soft fabric that suited my design.

As soon as i got home i started to work on the strap of the bag to check out how it would look. Attached is a picture of it being sewed.



Here is more images of the sketches of the bag and mockups to how it would work.
