good luck with the patterns. I usually make my bags from internet patterns or make up the pattern as I go. I'm working on the first one from Simplicity. I used to sew clothes from patterns without problems, but making a bag with the tissue paper patterns and their directions is becoming a real chore. I'd much rather be given rotary cutting sizes than pinning on the paper and cutting out. Guess my mind isn't as sharp as it used to be.
