Drawstring bags with hand carved eraser stamp labels  きんちゃく袋にけしごむはんこタグ


I made some oversized drawstring bags for my sister to organize her suitcase. My sis lives in the Midwest state and she enjoys traveling with her family often.

他州で暮らす妹に大きめサイズの巾着袋をたくさん縫いました。妹は家族で旅行をする機会が多いのでスーツケース内を整理するのに使ってもらえればと思いました。


To accessorize the bags, I created original handmade labels using the stamps that I carved out from the erasers.  For each and every bag, I stamped different eraser stamps using various colored inks.

いずれの巾着袋にも、手作りタグをつけてみました。タグは自分で彫ったけしごむはんこを使って手作り感いっぱいにしてみました。


Flower stamps in red, purple, and turquoise green ink.  Once the fabric is pressed with hot iron, the stamp stays permanent. 

こちらはお花のけしごむはんこを使って、赤、紫、青緑のスタンプを捺してみました。


This one is a blue bird stamped on the window fabric.

これは窓柄の生地に合わせて、青い鳥のけしごむはんこで。



Apple stamp for the apple fabric. A layer of red x white gingham check scrap adds the zakka taste to the apple label.

りんご柄の生地にはりんごのけしごむはんこを赤スタンプで捺してみました。赤x白のギンガムチェックのハギレも合わせて雑貨テイストで。



And another bird stamp on the simple pinstripes. 

こちらはシンプルなピンストライプの生地に赤い鳥のはんこを捺してみました。


Of course, I included some of my sis's favorite chocolate bars when I shipped these bags to her :) Maybe she liked these Godiva bars more than my handmade bags? lol

妹もチョコレート大好きなので、手作り巾着にチョコを添えてみました。もしかしたらこっちのほうが喜ばれたかも?



Eraser stamp carving needs some practice, but it's not difficult once you get the hang of it. I've covered the eraser stamp carving techniques in my book if you're interested in carving your own eraser stamps!

けしごむはんこを彫るのは最初は少しコツがいりますが、決して難しくはありません。私の著書にもけしごむはんこの彫り方のコツなど掲載させてもらっていますのでよかったらご覧になってみて下さいね。


Before I go, I have a great announcement that Anna of Noodlehead joined the blog tour of my book! Which means we now have eleven blog hops to enjoy. The blog tour will begin from 6/24/13, so hope you stay tuned!

お知らせです。私の著書の出版を記念して企画しているブログツアーに新たに一名の人気手芸ブロガーさんが参加してくださることになりました。ブログツアーは6/24/13からスタートしますのでどうぞお見逃しなく!ブログツアーの詳細はこちら→☆

I love your drawstring bags, you've done a beautiful job by using the carved stamps. I like the patterns you've created to make labels and the selection of colors. Wow, impressive!! Thanks for sharing your creativity with us. I'm sure your sister will love receiving these bags. I also learned something with you, is that once pressed, the stamp stays permanent, that was always my question.
Thank you!
