What looks great with a pair of blue jeans? Ruby by Bonnie and Camille!
Last weekend I took advantage of Keyka Lou’s anniversary sale (now known as Michelle Patterns). I waffled around wondering what fabrics I wanted to use for this pattern. I hadn’t intended on using denim but I found a pair of jeans my husband no longer wore and decided to cut them up.
I didn’t want to make the bag entirely out of denim and this print from Bonnie and Camille’s Ruby line looks so sweet with it, a great contrast of masculine and feminine. I happened to have some yellow top stitching thread which came in handy for this project.
I was going to use denim for the strap but the way I cut the jeans ruined that idea so I decided to make one out of fabric. I put a piece of batting inside and top stitched 4 times.
This bag is generous enough to hold an iPad or book without being oversized, I also love the little side pockets, cute and functional.
It’s so pretty! I love her patterns.
Thanks Tara, her patterns are so quick and easy to whip up, I love them!
Perfect fit.
Very sweet!!
Loving the fabric choices, Tabatha!
Thanks M-R, I think I’m going to play more with this combination!
I really like the cute pockets and good idea for the handle.
Thanks Amanda! This is my favorite bag and I think it’s going to come to Germany with me!
I love this bag! I like the print with the denim.
Thank you Candy, me too! I really love the denim with Ruby and I think this one is a keeper! I’m going to add a magnetic snap to it as well.
