This Venus handbag is one of my newer creations that plays with 3 different fabrics. The outside has a vintage cotton fruity floral print on an orange background, paired with a solid blue canvas. The fruity florals are blue, green, white and purple The 3rd fabric is the lining, which is another vintage floral print. This small floral print is rows of yellow and orange blossoms on a white background.

The lining is quilted with the interfacing giving it some softness and stability. There are no pockets inside this bag.

The handle on this Venus bag differs from the others by using a twisted rope that runs between the main fabric and the lining creating 2 loops.

The closure is a magnetic snap placed inside.

size:
10 " at the widest
7 " center top to bottom
2 " deep
1 " tubular rope handles

Inspiration / Story behind this Product:

I wanted to make a bag that was a decent size, has easy access and was hand held. This is what I came up with. The first one I made was not split into different fabrics on the outside. That idea happened when I could not decide between 2 fabrics and realized I did not have enough of either, but they went together..so - poof! I used them both. The tabs for the handles have been attached various ways depending on the fabric type. The one thing that is the same for all, the tabs overlap the outside and have a decorative button attached. And the name - my son wanted it to be called "The Alien" because when it is opened, it looks like the pod from the movies. But I went with Venus...more like the venus flower trap - less creepy.
