My envelopes are all made from Trader Joe's and Whole Foods paper bags - an AWESOME way to upcycle, right?!
I layer papers and fabrics onto them and then sew the pieces to the envelopes.
Each one is unique - that is probably why I enjoy making them so much! Each one is a new adventure!
Here is the process - my sewing machine table colvered in paper and scraps of fabrics! |
A few of my favourite designs... |
I love the texture that the stitching adds! |
Near the top of this photo you can see where I did some free-motion sewing. |

Fun, right? |
