其實我有收藏一塊這種復古蕾絲 只是在台灣

My sister and her family recently bought their first home. The previous owner was a sweet elderly lady. She had these old lace curtains that weren't my sister's style. I asked if I could have them. I've been trying to think of fun ways to use them and this was the first idea I had. I'm calling it my "Granny Chic Tote."
I used fusible interfacing on the exterior and interior. I like firm bags that don't flop around. I took the bottom scalloped edge of the curtains and laid it across the front and back of the purse. I stitched across the scalloped edge and then treated it as one piece from there on.
I sewed the front and back together and boxed the corners. I centered the scallops on the front and back so the it would be symmetrical and the lace would match up on the side seams.
I made the interior the same way as the exterior and I added the super heavy interfacing (peltex) along the bottom (between the two layers).
I also added a magnetic snap. Then I sewed the interior and exterior together with bias tape.
There are a few pockets in the inside.
And that's it.
It's pretty big. I needed lots of space, so I went large on this one.
