Thanks for all the compliments. :) I found myself driving by the fabric store that wasn't on the way home tonight, so I accidentally popped in and got some more fabric to try this one again - this time WITH the batting, lol.
I wish I could find a nice bag I liked AND thought I could make, lol. I'm so picky about bags...a bucket tote with a top zip closure and lots of inside and outside pockets. With accompanying picture tutorial.
I guess I could get a pattern, but would I be able to read it? I don't do too well with clothing patterns, at all. Maybe I need to 'work up to that' hehe.
