Product Description
You?ll tire of hearing ?Where did you get that bag??

Simply Sublime Bags offers the secrets to creating four-figure-price-tag-worthy bags. And most of them only take an afternoon! Whether it?s a casual carryall or a ritzy, patent leather clutch, the envy of your friends is only a few hours away.

Why break the bank for a designer bag when you can easily make your own unique fashion statement? In Simply Sublime Bags, you?ll find 30 do-it-yourself, clever and affordable handbag projects?all of which require little to no sewing. With inventive methods of construction (like duct-taped reinforced interiors and iron fusing), these hip handbags, totes, and clutches have all the looks that bag-lovers want?the shine of patent leather, Chanel-style chain straps, or even funky logos?and each can be personalized to your own taste. The materials are easy to find in hardware, home, office supply, and fabric stores?sometimes even in your own closet!

Bags include:
? Charmed, I?m Sure?brightly colored vinyl makeup bags with vintage plastic charm zipper pulls
? Keyhole Clutch?pink-and-white houndstooth fabric lined with duct tape, with keyhole cutouts for handles
? Shower Curtain Tote?you guessed it, a funky fabric tote made from a shower curtain
? Nights in Black Satin?an elegant evening clutch made from satin ribbon stapled together and adorned with a rhinestone earring clasp

Day to evening, totes to clutches, and everything in between, Simply Sublime Bags has something for every occasion. The results? Simply sublime!

4 out of 5 stars Simply Sublime Bags - Lots of fun   November 19, 2008
The ideas in this book are great - only problem is enlarging the patterns. A copy business would not do it even though permission is given in the book so it took quite a bit of time figuring out how to make the patterns. The bags I made were fun and easy.


5 out of 5 stars love it   November 13, 2008
I've been making the no sew totes for Christmas gifts. so easy. the best part is in the back of the book where it tell you where to buy the supplies was very helpful.


4 out of 5 stars Simple   November 10, 2008
Very simple to follow directions for some great bags that make great gifts. My teenage daughter and I have had a lot of fun making these bags for our family and friends.


5 out of 5 stars Simply Sublime Bags 30 No-Sew , Low-Sew Projects   November 10, 2008
The bags and Instructions are simple and easy to work from. An all round great book for Beginners and Advanced alike.


5 out of 5 stars Truly Sublime   October 15, 2008
This book provides detailed but simple instructions to make truly gorgeous bags, and the beautiful photographs gave me an incentive to get started. After finishing my first bag I bought three more books to give to friends. This book couldn't have appeared at a better time. Why spend a bunch of dollars buying a great bag when you can make one inexpensively and with a minimum expenditure of time? Billie M.
