Tarot bags!

[nendil]

The blue one is for the Universal Waite deck, and the purple one is for Shadowscapes. :3 The blue fabric is just a nice pattern I picked out from the quilting cotton weaves, but Shadowscapes deserved special treatment... so it got a fancy silky sari fabric. 100% worth it!

Oh yeah, and they're both double-layered with a gold lining... forgot to take a photo showing that.

I'm so addicted to trawling the fabric store for the perfect fitting materials to match a deck. :D Since I only own a few decks myself, I'm thinking of opening an Etsy store to fulfill other people's requests... But I'll have to get used to using the mini-sewing machine I just got from Amazon first. These bags for myself were stitched meticulously by hand, but obviously I can't go at that pace if I'm going to do more of these.

(As a bonus, maybe now I'll finally be able to sew some proper costumes for cosplay...)

Very cute! These were sewn by hand? But such tiny stitches!!

Yay for getting a sewing machine. (I love mine so much)

I am nothing if not obsessive meticulous. :D Once I get my own camera back from my mom I'll take better macros (at least for the eventual Etsy store) that show the stitches and buttons and whatnot.

Okay, although I'm a bit busy with life for the moment and might not be able to get to it for a couple of weeks. Also, I can't guarantee I'll find the same fabric, but I'll definitely scour the store for the best fit!
