Really fun work from illustrator Luke Best.

Another Fly Bag

Here is another version I worked on for my fibers class. Again, I hand-dyed all the fabric and hand painted the stripes on the lining. I am obsessed with embroidery and wanted to do all the type in stitches. Also, the photo doesn't really show this well, but there are three compartments. On each side I made pockets the length of the bag, one is in front of the lining and the other is behind. In the top photo you can see the zipper for one of the pockets. It was a lot of fun trying to figure out how to make that element work.
