Jhola : To a T

Braids! how I love them these days. Am trying to grow my hair long, just to make braids :P So it is quite evident that i incorporate a little braiding action in kavisto. I have a Tee from my super skinny days, since i don't /can't use it anymore i decided to make a jhola of it. Its turquoise in colour and has some design in white on it.



First i made a braid of some white fabric from my stash:



Then i cut the Tee into this shape:



Used white fabric for making the inner lining of the bag. After a lot of sewing joined the two opposite sides of the Tee keeping the braid end in between. Since god lies in details ;) made a pocket on the inside of the jhola with the sleeve that i had cut off:



one on the outer side with the remains of the neckline:



And finally, made a little deco on the top:



Done (weird lighting is making the bag look blue)!
