Embellished bag challenge

Ashburton Creative Fibre Club Challenge 2018

Embellished Bag Challenge

The 2018 ACF Challenge is to embellish a supermarket shopping tote. Cost is $5.00 per entry.

Bags are made from woven jute with a waterproof finish on the inside. (These are exactly the same as jute supermarket bags but without logos and wording – retail price at a supermarket is around $6.00).  Embellishments must include something made from natural fibre using any techniques (eg. knitting, felting, crochet, sewing etc.), and ‘compulsory items’ supplied by your group. Any other embellishments or features can be added so long as the finished product is still a usable bag (ie. not a hat or a pair of trousers)!

PVA glue, sewing using upholstery or tapestry needles and any other attachment methods can be used to attach embellishments. (NB: Iron-on embellishments may damage the waterproof lining.)

Colours can be included using dye, ink, screenprint, etc.You will receive; 
A jute shopping tote,  
A few ‘compulsory items’: buttons, beads, woven scrap (fabric, ribbon etc), 
Label - write your name and your club name on the label and attach to the bag handle.
