Amsterdam Burlap Clutch

Since I've been back from our recent trip to Charleston,  I've been busy sewing away! I finished a custom burlap zipper pouch for a customer looking to match an existing purse, and it turned out fantastic! I also wrapped up a brand new clutch purse for the Lina and Vi Etsy shop. Please welcome the Amsterdam clutch as the newest member of the Grounds collection!

As you can see, I'm still on that faux brown leather kick right now. The exterior burlap features industrial printed text, most of which is either cut off or illegible, with the exception of the Amsterdam print on one side. The bottom of the clutch is accented with the vinyl fabric and a beige top-stitching, which it gives it a very polished look, similar to the Charleston bag I shared last week.  I really love the faux leather look against the burlap. It keeps the entire look very warm and natural, while still offering a bit of sophistication.

On the interior of the Amsterdam clutch, you will find beige canvas fabric that provides the structure to keep the shape of the clutch. The clutch secures shut with an ivory metal tooth YKK zipper and is held by a small beige wrist strap. This is a medium sized clutch, measuring 13" x 8", so it's large enough to hold a small wallet, keys, cell phone, mirror, your friend's phone, your friend's ID.... when you carry this clutch, your friends will be asking you to carry their items too!

This bag is very similar to the Pink + Brown Burlap Clutch I sewed in August, just slightly longer and with different burlap print on the outside.  I think the original and this latest rendition both turned out great, and I'm excited to make the Amsterdam clutch available for purchase in our Etsy shop now.

Thanks for stopping by!
