I notice color all around me and am inspired to create bags using bold color combinations. Barkcloth is the perfect canvas for me. I love the way textile artists in the 30's, 40's and 50's put different and sometimes clashing colors together to create some of the most beautiful fabric ever produced.
I found the incredibly beautiful midnight blue vintage barkcloth at mslegacysews.etsy.com. Then the hunt began for the right lining to go with it. I was lucky to find the peacock print and I just knew it would be perfect.
The finished bag. I love the way it turned out!
