These 2 water bottle slings were a custom order for a woman and her son. Her son is a world traveler and by accident I found out the family likes Dr. Who. I emailed her some photos of fabrics I had. She liked blue, so I showed her some blue fabrics I had. I had the travel fabric, but I also thought perhaps a time travel (Dr. Who in the Exploding Tardis) would also be of interest as well. That's when she said they all like watching Dr. Who, so she chose these 2 fabrics and the son preferred the travel fabric. So glad I had some fabric choices that worked well for them.
The front zip pocket placement was just perfect for the Tardis. |
Inside the zip pocket is a pen pocket and a couple of slip pockets, plus space in the middle can hold things too like a rings of keys. A passport, phone can easily fit in the slip pockets. |
I make matching little wallets to slip in one of the pockets too. |
Inside the little wallet you can hold a few cards and cash folded in the back larger pocket. |
This waterproof canvas fabric lining shade of blue picked up the lighter blue in the Tardis fabric just right. |
I also include a shoulder pad for these bags. It's removable in case you don't want to use it or you need to use it on another bag. |
The back of the bag is where it is seamed together. The seam is against your body so it really never shows. |
This is the bag for her son in a travel print. |
There are postage stamps from around the world and a camera |
I just happened to have a great charm for the zipper. (I guess it was in the shadows and didn't photograph shiny). |
Inside the zip pocket this one also has a pen pocket and 2 slip pockets. |
Matching little wallet. |
Room for cards and cash that is folded in the back deeper pocket. |
I chose a gray waterproof canvas for the lining. |
Here is the back seam. Again, the seam would be worn against the body so it won't show. |
Shoulder pad that can be removed. |
ReplyDeleteThese are just such neat bottle holders! What pattern do you use for these?
Very handy, and beautiful too! I bought the snaps you use and recommended but haven't been able to attach them securely to more than one layer of fabric at a time. I will keep trying because obviously you use them through multiple layers.
ReplyDeleteSo cute and you find the cutest embellishments for your bags!
