Turtle Pillows

I make these two pillows as a Christmas present to a friend that loves turtles and collect "turtles", not the real ones of course, but everything that has turtles....

a bag with a hippie look

This is my 8th bag, which I did for myself to use during my holidays and week-ends.

It is in a blue light denim and I tried to give it a hippie look, a flavour of the earlier 70's.....when I was 17 years old. I hope you like.

the 7th bag

This is my 7th bag, is a very simple model, a friend of mine asked me if I could make a denim shoulder bag, to use in her holidays. This is the result. I hope she likes it.

Summer bag!

This bag was made for a friend of mine, to take everything you need to spend a few hours on the beach, during her holidays.

Another bag, this is the 5th bag I made

My last bag

My last bag was made of denim and a Portuguese "chita" fabric. I really like it.

Beach bag for Natália

Finally I finished my 3rd bag! It is a huge bag for the beach!!!! Inside there are two pockets, one with a ziper and other with "rick-rack". Outside the same, two pockets on both sides of the bag, one for the mobile phone with invisible closure, the other for documents, money, keys...

The bag closes with a ziper at the top, has a plastic base for structure and four metal feet. I hope you like it ( I have a few "holes" on my fingers, denim is hard to hand-sew LOL).

Alcobaça Fabrics

These two, above are not Alcobaça fabrics, but I like the patterns
and the colors!

Alcobaça fabric, blue of Alcobaça, bird pattern

All of the Alcobaça fabrics are 100% cotton, printed patterns and are still used for home decor.

The fabrics below are called chitas, they are also 100% cotton printed fabrics, but less expensives. They were used for making clothes, by the lower classes.
