I made the last bags from velvet.
I didn’t transfer the pattern onto velvet ! 
I printed it on paper, I made the sandwich and laid the paper on it and I stitched through paper . The sandwich was too thick so the thread broke often 
The texture is nice and despite of the problems I think I can do this again !
It took me a lot of time to fill this area with pebbles !
I even pieced velvet ! For the first time, it was a nightmare !If you ever want to piece something from velvet, cut larger pieces.
For example, if you want to add borders to a square (like I did), cut the borders longer than the square. Stitch the pieces together then adjust the length of the border.
My stock of velvet is finished now ! This is a printed velvet, I didn’t applique anything on it !
Beautiful workmanship! I will have to try working with the velvet sometime…it looks like it quilts like a dream!
How beautiful! I bet the look better in person too with the texture of the velvet showing. Love the printed velvet too.

I love the fabric. I don't think I have seen such beautiful printed velvet here. I can only remember black printed velvet. Lovely bags.
Mereu admir lucrarile tale, aceasta geanta alba esta ata de eleganta, fina, ca nici nu gasesc cuvinte sa ma exprim :o)
Beautiful!

You find such beautful and interesting fabric! And then you work your magic on it!

These are so lovely Geta. Its funny because I brought some lovely lilac velvet yesterday with a view to quilting it. I thought I might just use a stabiliser and omit the batting to reduce the bulk. There wont be much texture though.
Those totes are beautiful!!
These are beautiful. I haven't seen printed velvet like this.
These bags are marvellous. Your work is so beautiful.
The bags are gorgeous. Working with velvet – especially piecing – can be difficult, but you show its well worth the effort.
In your blog their are lots of stuff available to see and work on it in the future. Thanks for sharing this and hopefully this nice texture will help me to make my own texture as well.
