Repurposed Banner Bags for Blue Genie Art Bazaar

I’ve been making repurposed banner bags with webbing handles as a collaboration with Blue Genie Art Bazaar using banners they have from past holiday bazaars and May Markets. They are large tote bags measuring 18”x16”, great size for an overnight, gym or swim bag, etc. The material is stiff enough that I have to wrestle it a bit in the corners to turn it right side out after sewing, so I don’t want to try smaller totes because of that from this material. There is a little bit of distressing due to these being used banners. I think they’ve turned out nicely.

They will be sold in their webstore after the bags are photographed and listed. They are kind of limited edition as the material is limited, for now I’ve cut as many bags as I can from the material I was given for this purpose.

Limited Edition briefbags

I am making a batch of briefbags using vintage automotive vinyl, which are limited edition because I cut all the light blue ‘55 Ford Fairlane and the dark olive 70s vinyl I had so these will be the last batch with this specific combination of vinyls. They are some of the stock I’m building up for the upcoming Blue Genie Art Bazaar May Market that starts April 28 and is 5 weekends through May including Memorial Day. They will be lined in orange as most of my bags are, a combination of vinyl and canvas.
