Hi there, welcome back 🌸 I refashioned my old scarf into a cozy tunic and love how it turned out. I planned to do this many months ago and glad I finally did it.  This tunic can be worn as a layer or as it is. It is so comfy and warm, perfect for the cooler weather we are having now.  The material of my scarf is a wool blend in a lovely print. I got it from a friend 15 years ago. The refashioning process was easy and fast, I started with making the neckline. Cut the length and use the leftover fabric for the neckband. I pinned and sewed the neckband to the neckline.

Candy Tote Bag

By -
I named this tote bag "CANDY" because she looks colourful and sweet:)
I made several bag with several colours, I think I am crazy enough to made 4 tote bags in one week. I was busy and always be, taking care my sweet little baby. I only have time to sewing when my baby napping in the afternoon.
I showed my first candy bag to my husband when he arrived home after work, and he was surprised that I could finish one bag during two hours. Woah...! Even myself was surprised!

Here I made four candy bags already but I am going to make one more. I will give all of them for my cousins in Indonesia as holiday gift. I am sure they will love it:)



The size of the bag approximately 24 cm height, 35 cm weight and 8 cm deep.
Material needed:
- Home decor fabric
- Cotton as interfacing
- Bias tape, I used bias tape from japanesse cotton.
- 56 cm ykk zipper
- Heavy duty interfacing for bottom bag



The four candy bags are really cute, isn't it? I imagine that they are real candy that I could eat it all:)
I think I am really starving for candy right now.








Well, I only posting the pictures of my project for now. I will post the pattern and tutorial another time.
I also shared this project on --candy tote bag-- on www.Burdastyle.com

Note:
- If you want to make bias tape by yourself, you can read my tutorial on: BIAS TAPE TUTORIAL.
