My younger cousin is starting a new business venture; she is opening a Wine & Design studio next month. It is one of those places where you bring your own wine and paint a picture with a group. The pictures are traced before hand for you and you just basically fill in the lines, so anyone can do it.
I thought as an opening gift I would give her a wine carrier and a couple bottles of wine. Maybe I could stick some paint brushes in the side pockets along with a cork screw. I have settled on Atkinson Designs' Wine and Dine bag that carries two bottles of wine, linked below. The pattern calls for either laminate cotton, or cotton backed with a fusible interfacing.
I was thinking of piecing some mini charms on point. Do you guys think I could do that and back it with a fusible batting and quilt it? Like Bosal's In-R? I have used that for a large tote before and it worked pretty well... I am just not certain about using it for this smaller bag. (
Here is a link to my tote) What interfacing would you use? I want it to hold up with the heavy wine bottles, and I don't think fusible fleece would work as well.
The bag requires a 1/2 yard of main fabric... think I should do 2 or 3 mini charm packs for that since I want to do it on point?
Or maybe I will go nuts and EPP some hexies lol
Thanks guys!!!
