So&#8230; it&#8217;s not that I&#8217;m waking up too late. It&#8217;s just that this bag meant absolutely nothing to me, then one day I swore by it!  <\/p>\n<p>I was even more motivated by this bag because I was looking for a bag to put my sewing machine and all my little gear in for my sewing afternoons with friends. It took me a while to find the ideal fabric, but a quick trip to Tissu Market (my new paradise on earth) and RrrAAAHH!!! I found this red\/plum drill denim fabric, depending on the light. But problem: The remaining fabric on the roll was not  &nbsp;&nbsp;enough.<br \/>\nI absolutely wanted to make this bag in my drill denim, so I reduced the dimensions (main panels 42x43cm instead of 43x65cm) and cut the bag bottom from a fabric of a similar color.<\/p>\n<p>A small detail that makes it a must: the shiny leather finishes.<\/p>\n<p>Another version coming soon in a glazed linen.<\/p>\n<p>I love sewing and creating so much! \ud83d\ude00 <\/p>\n<p><em>I also wanted my version of the Aime comme Marie weekend bag!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> Almost every single French sewing blogger had a version of this bag (Aime comme Marie tutorial <a href=\"http:\/\/aimecmarieaddict.canalblog.com\/archives\/2012\/04\/27\/24104452.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a> &#8211; please do not hesitate to let me know should you need any help regarding to the French instructions).

But the remaining fabric did not seem to be enough. &#8220;No worries&#8221; I said to myself &#8220;sew it or die&#8221;.
