Upcycled Applique Bag

Ta-dah!
The house is a tip and the kids are half naked, but I don't care because I'm rather pleased with this.
It started life as 8 squares of denim cut from an old pair of jeans, a pillowcase and a pelmet. (Buying an odd pelmet with no price label from a charity shop was a bit of a Royston Vasey moment, I'm telling you!)
 
 I wanted to practice some applique, and ending up embellishing it with some old buttons and scraps of ribbon from my cardmaking box.


And I got to practise those tricky curved lines!
