DIY 'aint usually my bag

As the title of this post clearly states, DIY isn't usually my thing but after lusting after a black leather clutch big enough to fit things I need to take to the office but not finding one I liked, I realised I was going to have to get my sewing machine out.

It was super-simple to make. I bought the fabric from Shepard's Bush market (my personal favourite place for fabric and haberdashery in London- there is a really wide selection and it's much cheaper then Berwick Street) and a couple of zips, ran it through the sewing machine and 'hey-presto'.
