Yay, #2 of my class samples is done for Patchwork In The Peaks! For this version of the Aeroplane Bag I used all PVC fabric for the outer, and a home dec weight fabric for the lining. I also added in a few extra pockets:
 |
| Zip pocket outer on side 1 to hold my passport/boarding card etc |
 |
| Slip pocket on side 2 for my Kindle/glasses |
 |
| Slip pocket more visible on side 2 |
 |
| Laptop interior pocket |
 |
| Bellows pockets for shoes, plus the original zipped inner pocker |
Just to give you a bit of comparison with my model aeroplane from the other day:
I took all these photos in a local park, much to the amusement of an old guy sitting on one of the other benches, who couldn’t work out WTH was happening, especially when I hauled out the quilt and 3 jackets from the Airbus to take photos of the lining ;o)
Just one more mini to go, as I’m going to use the Airbus for my actual luggage for the trip, so can’t fit in another regular sized on. I have other plans for that Echino now though :o)
Fabulous bags love them .,,,,so cute!!
Thank you so much :o)
Um you matched the fabrics that perfectly for the slip pockets? I bow to your superior bag making skills – this one is incredible (might have something to do with the kombi vans. Sob.)
well impressed by those additional pockets!
Gosh you're good!!! I'm loving these bags!!
Love the Beetle van. I'm sure the bag would hold nearly all you want.
Hugs
Love them both – often wondered what an out and about photo shoot would be like and I can well imagine one in Glasgow – surprised the old guy didn't embark upon a dialogue!!
Lovely bags! It's useful seeing them for size comparison and also you mentioning the addition of a laptop pocket as that gives me a better idea mentally of the size of the long bag. I think I have the regular aeroplane bag pieces cut out but I find it hard to mentally imagine how big the bag is going to be in real terms. (ie how much crap I can fit in it)
Well done! I had to take a close look to see the slip pocket. This is brilliantly lines up. I love the VW. it is just gorgeous
Fab bag Katy and clearly quite capacious!
That's definitely my favourite so far! Gorgeous!
You certainly do have a knack for bags. I find them very frustrating! Looks fabulous, is it small enough to still carry on?
Brilliant!! I love the extra pockets, especially those brilliantly matched outside ones!
These bags are looking so lovely and your students will be so inspired by all the options.
OMG I love it!!! Where did you find the fabric – it's fabulous!! I feel honoured that I'm going to be one of your students!!!
Love this one. I can just imagine the looks you got…..but well worth it. I spotted straight away that you had outdoor photos in a park! Juliex
Love it! you should have snapped a pic of the older gentlemen's confused face 🙂 LOL
It looks wonderful. You really do have a talent for bags. I love those fabrics !
loving your work and fabric matching skills. it took me ages to find that outside pocket!
The camper vans just might be my favorites.
Hahaha! At the end, did you turn around and snap a picture of the elderly dude? 😀
That's some nice fussy cutting to line up the pattern on the front!
Cutest bags, I love the fabrics you used!
Hugs,
