Bags for posing, bags for shopping, bags for you, and bags for giving: Deena Beverley's Brilliant Bags is packed with inspiration and information to make 20 gorgeous bags for every occasion - be it a night out at the opera, a summer wedding, lunch with the girls, or simply a stroll in the park.
Whether you are looking for something to make in a day to take out that evening, or a more complex project to lavish time and effort on, Brilliant Bags is packed with inspiration and ideas to create bags that balance beauty with practicality.
Sharing her years of experience, and using only simple hand- or machine-stitching and interesting materials such as metallic threads combined with beads, sequins, and found objects, Deena transforms the often ordinary bag into something beautiful and covetable.
