No, I did not piece it was a small sample of fabric that I found in the remnant bin at a shop that deals mostly with decorator fabrics. I fell in love with it and I just did a simple pattern with boxed corners and followed a few different blogs and Youtube videos and added a recessed zipper on the top. I had found a bag at a garage sale for $1.00 that had the chain and other nce hardware on it. I thought the chain was perfect for this bag. I have a few more pieces of upholstery fabric that I found there with different designs. I am still trying to decide what to do with them.

It looks great and with the upholstery fabric it should wear beautifully. I love the beads on the zipper pull, nice touch. Your quilting is so cute echoing the flower on your bag.

I have some upholstery fabric I want to make a bag with. Yours is really nice. You gave me inspiration.

Very cute. This past week the winner on Project Runway used upholstry fabric to make a long coat over the top of a long black dress that was to show case these very expensive, gorgeous jewels. It was fantastic and like I said she won.

Great idea to buy a bag for the hardware and make your own creation!
