Sweet Lolita Bag

Hello! I have been crafting away in my little basement bedroom (it is the perfect size for me) since I learned how to use my sewing machine (finally), and I decided it was time that I use my favourite fabric by some guy I cannot remember the name of. I have held off for two years on using that fabric because I wanted to make sure that when I did use it, nothing was wasted. So I made myself a bag!

Sweet Lolita really is not my preferred style of Lolita but I must say I do love the accessories. Sweet Lolita is not very flattering on me so I generally stick to Classic Lolita or Gothic Lolita because it suites my taste as well as my figure. This does not mean that I do not have a weak spot for bright pink and sweet prints, lace, and pastel colours. Oh no, quite the opposite. Which is why I made this!

The picture quality is terrible because I use my cell phone to take the pictures, but regardless there it is! My own Sweet Lolita bag that I have been using ever since I made it (this morning, haha). I really need to iron it. You cannot tell me that, that fabric is not just so cute. It is bright but not too bright, covered in goodies but not too much going on, and very durable! I like fashion AND function.

(Hey look, there is my Hello Kitty wallet) I cut up an old skirt I use to wear when I was fat so I could give it extra durability as well as a nice interior. However I do need to apply some lace over the stitches and mess to finalize the project and make it look better in general. I fought with my sewing machine so much during this project. Seriously, it was absolutely ridiculous yet I remained composed (mostly) and stepped away so I could come back to it with a calm mind. All in all I am very happy with my new bag and it was totally worth the bickering between me and the machine. I can guarantee that there will be more projects to come and maybe even some tutorials!
