PPC35: Tester Update- Jeannette
So... I decided to do something quite different this time when it comes to showing you the samples that our Testers created while testing our new design for us. They all tend to send me multiple pictures of the bags they create & since this round of testing proved to be no exception, I decided that all of these pictures deserve to be seen & documented... so here we go!
Jeanette hails from San Antonio, TX & she began testing for us in the Spring of 2022 with the release of our Bella BiFold design.
Now I'm no expert on this but I think this fabric has Harry Potter influences, of course I could be wrong.
🙂
Jeannette said that after cutting out the interfacing for this project, she realized that she mistakenly had laid it out incorrectly, but rather than start over, she decided to just go with it, and the result is that her bag is a "mirror-image" of my bag, but no problem with that, right?
I like that Jeannette chose to use our black & white mini-striped zipper for this fabric. I've always maintained that they go with virtually ANYTHING and this combination proves my point! She also chose to go with the black & white striped paracord for the water bottle pouch to complete the "look".
Here's a good look at the upper bag area which Jeannette decided to reinforce with a screw-tack.
and this closeup of the zippered strap area was accomplished wo perfection, with perfect fussy-cutting to boot! Great job, Jeannette!
All in all, I'd say she exceeded expectations with this sample. Would you agree?
And now.... it's YOUR turn!
