I found nine different black and white fabrics in my stash which all fit together to make this bold, Man in White bag. The main fabric is an embroidered linen-like material that has a nice body and texture. I used it on the flap, the under flap, the strap, the cell and back pockets. The flap has curved corners edged in black cording with sample pieces across the bottom featuring an embroidered flower and trimmed with black and white braid.
The front of the bag is striped and has a large double pocket. I used a vintage hand embroidered and crocheted pillow case piece for a wonderful “change of pace” decorating the pocket.
The stripes are horizontal on the back with a nice size pocket trimmed with braid.
Inside I used black and white polka dot, animal print, striped and floral materials. The pocket is divided in three with a polka dot ribbon trim.The black material used throughout the bag is a medium weight fabric with a wavy design. I used fusible lining on most pieces to make a sturdy bag.
The strap, top stitched in white, is one piece measuring 41 inches and the bag is approximately 10 ½ x 12 ¾.
