WWI


There's something really incredible about working with material from World War I -- it always has this certain feel and this certain smell.

I made this large pouch today out of canvas from a WWI duffel. It's available HERE.

There's a big pile of canvas from a WWI era bed roll stashed away in my studio and I've been waiting until the perfect idea comes into my head to start sewing with it..

Love everything about this. The photography, the antique materials, the finished product. It is all perfect.
