“L'heure du thé (noir)”  CO-090

A trapezoid crossbody bag made from a black, gray-blue, and silver “Alice in Wonderland” babywearing scarf, paired with hand-quilted black faux leather.

"Cogitations" Range / Collection Femininities A chic and fun version of the Caroll tale, in a practical and stylish crossbody bag.

Its story

Tales are an endless source of inspiration. Mokosh is one of my favorite babywearing scarf brands, not only for the quality of the fibers used but also for the level of pattern research, and in this regard, “Alice in Wonderland“ does not disappoint and surpasses interpretations by other brands.

With this very chic fabric featuring its subtle tones and silver glitter, I immediately wanted to pair it with a piece of velvety black faux leather, which I further machine-quilted myself. I obtained a glittery canvas scrap from a mystery pack from a supplier to complete the look, and that was it!

I was drawn to this Trapezoid crossbody bag pattern for its ability to showcase a figurative panel and the play of rings on the front. Once sewn, I liked its practical yet elegant lines, its compact yet spacious volume, and its interior compartments that help organize its content, all securely enclosed behind the zipper.

Pair it with the Zip Card Holder and Coin Purse “En Ville”.

After ordering a bag from stock, Charlotte realized it would be too small. I offered to make her a custom, larger version, and she sent me her baby wrap to transform.
