“Floraison Automnale” N° CO-200

"Intuitions" Range / Theme Nature Floral—but neither shy nor dull. A bag with character: practical for everyday use, with a dash of cheerful boldness.
Its story
Between the sunny energy of yellow, the deep chocolate, and the vintage floral print, “Autumn Bloom” combines classic charm with a lively twist.
Sturdy, functional, ready to lug around your essentials (and a bit more), it makes a bold statement—and does it well.
In short, a bag that’s not afraid to get noticed... are you?
To be honest, I’m usually not a fan of floral prints, but this one won me over—it wasn’t too dainty, thanks to those fuchsia blooms. That said, I wasn’t quite sure how to use it...
This year’s “mystery sewing” session provided the perfect opportunity, and I got to pair it with these leathers (and even the zipper!) that matched just right. The zip even let me have some fun with playful pulls. Sure, it meant using a nylon zipper—but sometimes, practicality wins ;)
As always with blind sewing sessions, I loved seeing the result gradually come to life before my eyes, and I’m really happy with how it turned out: a floral bag that’s anything but boring—who would’ve thought?
