Matchmaker Monday Episode 26 | Vinyl & Faux Leather Pairings

Matchmaker Monday is a weekly Sew Yours feature where we curate coordinated fabrics, linings, zipper tape, thread, hardware, and finishing supplies to help bag makers create beautiful projects with confidence.

This week's collection features MetallicCrackle™ in Champagne Gold, EarthGrain™ Faux Leather in Storm Blue, and CrocHeritage™ Embossed Vinyl in Merlot, each paired with coordinating bag-making materials.

Each pairing was selected to make coordinating colors, textures, and finishes easier, whether you're planning a handbag, tote, crossbody bag, backpack, wallet, organizer, or another handmade accessory.

Products are arranged in the same order they're featured in the video, making it easy to shop along while you watch.
