White Character

It's been a while since I posted about an almost pure white interior right? Fear not, here it is! :)

The combination of antique/vintage furniture and white walls just work so well together.

what's up with jill?

Wondering what happened with Jill's bag?


She Measured and cut, ironed and sewed, then created the base.
Next steps: inner and outer layers were sewn up and then ready t be sewn together. The handles got sewn on, layers pinned together (wrong sides out) and finally the topstitching on the bag was done.


Here are a few more photos from Jill's work of art. Make sure to check out her amazing etsy if you haven't yet. I have a Jill Bent bag that I take with me every time walk over to the grocery store!
Thanks Jill!
