Now that I have my pockets done I feel silly what I ask before, but I guess that is why it is so hard the first time. Well, I have most of it done now, but one hopefully last question. I have my lining finished and pushed down inside the outer shell and bottom including finished pockets. I even have my bows on now. So to connect the lining to the outside can I just pin in between where the handles and button flap go and the connected tops turned over together stitch it all around the top? IF I have to turn some of it inside out at this point then I am confused.

Please disregard the post above this, because I have it figured out. I guess I shouldn't have automatically come here to the tutorial every time I had a question, but wasn't sure at first. I am also still learning the board, but having a wonderful time, and with many nice folks. I also hope I can be of help to anyone in any way. Thanks!

I didn't see you're post til now. Glad you figured it out. Can't wait to see it! :)

Made my first Bow Tuck this morning. I was a little worried because I had read so many posts that the directions were confusing. Didn't find that to be the case but did read them through before I started to cut out material. It was fun and my granddaughter loved it. :) :) :)
