Well folks; Madame Samm and Mary have come up with this fantastic idea to have this retro blog hop.
A huge thanks goes out to them...and our sponsors because this has been so much fun!!!!!
I made one piece for this time around, and I hope you enjoy seeing it....
I made a swing bag with flowers made from Batiks...cut out with the GoBaby.
I took 60s pictures from on line and printed them on printable fabric, and appliqued to the bag.
One side of the bag....
other side of bag....
Now; are you ready for the next pics??
Not sure you know; but I was in high school at the end of the 60s; graduated in 71. It was a fantastic decade..And I didn't even get into the wacky tabaccy!!!!!! Even though it looks like I did for these pics...lol.
Now after those pictures; you deserve a giveaway!!!! I have 2 FQs for one winner...just leave a comment.
This solid fabric is actually a deep purple.......

ReplyDeleteYour bag is fantastic! Your dress up pictures, well fantastic as well, lol! Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeletelove the bag and the photos of you dressed up. I am a little older well quite a bit older and when I think back about the sixties, free love and all that I cannot remember any of my cronies being into the naughty things that went on then, I am sure it is now exagerated to make it look more naughty that in really was.
ReplyDeleteI love your bag! Great pictures of you and your bag, completely in style! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteGreat bag - I love the pictures of you getting into the spirit of things - or maybe you always dress that way???????
ReplyDeleteLooking good!
ReplyDeleteOh. My. Goodness. That picture does take me back. Your bag is great. It just screams 60's to me. Sonny and Cher! Love it!
ReplyDeleteI love your bag. I remember having one I made all those years ago.... I love your photos of you and your bag. Later today when I've finished my chores I'm going to get out the photo albums and walk down the 60's/ early 70's memory lane.
ReplyDeleteYour bag is awesome. I love the picture with and it is really sixties

ReplyDeleteI was ready to say I liked your bag....That was before you modelled it in the right time frame. Now I absolutely love it! What a fun idea. You made me grin! One question: Are those clothes the originals.......And you STILL fit into them.....Amazing.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, i had the same vest! I love your bag, it is definetly 60's. I cannot believe you graduated. In 1971, you dont even look like you were born until 1971!! What is your secret?? babscorbitt@ gmail dot com
ReplyDeleteLove your bag, lots of flower power. Your bag and clothes makes me think of Sonny and Cher. Groovy.
ReplyDeleteMarjorie your bag and "threads" are way out baby! Dig that vest and skirt. I graduated in '73, But I was the youngest in my class because my mom got me into school a year early since my birthday was past the cutoff date since I born in Nov.
ReplyDeleteI graduated from high school in 1960 and was in college during the early and mid 60's. It has been fun seeing all the creative things people have made. Thanks for the great give away. Nancy: rangerer@sbcglobal.net
ReplyDeleteGroovy threads. You pull it off so fabulously. Ah, the mini skirt. I only had one which I made myself. It just needed to be hemmed the night before school pictures. I was off to some sports practice so I asked my mum to hem it for me. When she asked how short. I said just put it up one hand length. Imagine my surprise when the next morning I discovered Mum's hand length is considerably longer than mine. I did wear that skirt for pictures but not the whole day. Thank goodness Mum had used a sizeable hem so I was able to attach a false hem. It was to become a favorite skirt.
ReplyDeletePurple is my most favorite color! I have also been looking for a deep purple to make a quilt!
ReplyDeleteMarjorie you project turned out so groovy. You are a great model and a way out chick!
ReplyDeleteFar out! I graduated from college in the late 60's after escaping from SF to find a more traditional college town. Now I reside in the 'burbs but my daughter now lives in the Haight because it's close to her work. Your purse is boss and would have been deemed cool. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteLooking pretty cool.....just like ?? years ago. Lu sure did a great job
ReplyDeleteFar out indeed! Groovy bag you made! :D
ReplyDeleteCute, cute bag. But totally in love with the vest and headband. :) blessings, marlene

The 60's were a fun time , I was also in high school and remember the mini skirts and bell bottom pants decorated with wild fabrics . Thanks for taking me back with your fun tote .
ReplyDeleteCool bag! You managed to capture quite a few images from the 60's in one small spot, LOL. Year ahead of you in high school, class of 70 but my mini was still a little more conservative but I had the bell bottoms though not wildly decorated. Dad was a pastor so that might explain it. You look cute!
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures, very cute. Cute bag.
ReplyDeleteWhat an era to live through, your pics reminded me of my friend who wanted Sonny and Cher to come over after their concert performance to eat spaghetti dinner with her...what a fan

In those pictures, was that you in 2013 or was that in the 60s? You're a flower child, for sure!! The bag does look so groovey with it's flowers and the fringe! Love all the singers you added to the one side; what would the 60s have been without the songs. I dig ya - way cool.
