Handy barrel shaped bag that is great for all sorts of necessities… travel, toiletries, chargers & cords, crafty bits, accessories, collections…
A gorgeous vintage wool suiting in a rich coffee colour. This remnant is from my nonno’s collection and has a handsome selvedge that is featured along the zipper. Paired with ink blue accents along the zipper, sides & bottom. Convenient strap handle at one end, with top zipper opening & tabs. Fully lined in black & white gingham cotton.
Measures 11" long x 4.5" diameter (width/height) 28×11.5cm.
Briefly, selvedge is the edge of woven fabrics. On high quality textiles the manufacturing & fibre content info was woven into it, such as this one in gold and red, reading in full: Super 100s All Wool Made in England. Too beautiful not to display.
old: Vintage wool suiting remnants; upcycled cotton duvet (lining); upcycled cotton interfacing materials; ribbon remnant.
new: Zipper & binding.
1 of 4 made. Comes with Cipolla rePurpose tag detailing materials & batch.
As always, all fabrics are prewashed with fragrance & dye free detergents/softeners.
